In the restaurant

I'll never forget (he was, or wasn't This evening) the fire of dawn The pale sky is burned and parted And there are lanterns at the yellow dawn I was sitting by the window in a crowded room Somewhere they sang bows about love I sent you a black rose in a glass Golden as the sky, ai You lunged with the movement of a frightened bird You passed like my dream is light And the spirits sighed, the eyelashes dozed off The silks whispered anxiously But from the depths of the mirrors you cast glances at me And, throwing, she screamed "Catch it" And monisto was strumming, the gypsy was dancing And she screamed to zara about love You took a look I was embarrassed and defiant He looked haughty and bowed Turning to the gentleman, deliberately abruptly You said "And this one is in love" And immediately, the strings struck in response The bows began to sing ecstatically But you treated me with all the contempt of youth A slight tremor of the hand You lunged with the movement of a frightened bird You passed like my dream is light And the spirits sighed, the eyelashes dozed off The silks whispered anxiously But from the depths of the mirrors you cast glances at me And, throwing, she screamed "Catch it" And monisto was strumming, the gypsy was dancing And she screamed to zara about love But from the depths of the mirrors you cast glances at me And, throwing, she screamed "Catch it" And monisto was strumming, the gypsy was dancing And she screamed to zara about love
