After several unbearable months of silence I now hold in my hands a precious letter from my dearest joseph. He's safely reached india! The exotic land he describes in his letter sounds magnificent - colorful mystical and beautiful beyond imagining What must it be like to experience such wonders? I wish I could be there with him, but that is not to be Instead I find comfort in knowing that half a world away he held this same bit of paper in his hand. "
Travelling the world, port to port Enriches my life, horizon in sight I have seen wonders to last for a lifetime The world here is mystic and new The markets and colors, incense and scholars Flavors and scents ever pure
Words that you sent, sweet susanne Ignite in my heart a brand new start The darkest of skies make the brightest of stars shine I see you and me The dawn of an era, the birth of a new day This constellation I see And as the moon's gazing down On the shores of india I am calling out your name May the tides bear my words
Waves crashes down On the shores of india Did you summon them to me Have they come to take me home Salt water dew, see me through Show me the way, lead me to you Colors and spices, rich and enticing This land captures me Tropical thunders, musical wonders The arabian sea
I have seen wonders, guide me into your arms I sent you the waves Did they come here To take you home to me India, pearl of the east Bless the holy waters And protect me on my Journey back to her
