Scheherazade
This is my humble commentary on that matchless Middle Eastern and Indian story-book “One Thousand and One Nights”. Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's symphonic suite of the same name is the perfect musical accompaniment!
Scheherazade

the evil emir like a bleeding lion,
his twisting, vengeful face now full with
requieted lust; your wisdom shines
