The Bus

I am promised with your eyes, promised
And if you only knew how many villages I crossed for them
You, you, your eyes are black
You don't know, you don't know
What they do to me, what they do to me, what they do to me
Your black eyes
 
On the roaring of the bus
Which was taking us
From the village of Himlaya to the village of Tanourine
I remembered you, Aliya, and I remembered your eyes
And damn your eyes, Aliya, how pretty they are!
On the roaring of the bus
Which was taking us
From the village of Himlaya to the village of Tanourine
I remembered you, Aliya, and I remembered your eyes
And damn your eyes, Aliya, how pretty they are!
 
We were traveling
In this killing heat
We were traveling
In this killing heat
One of the passengers was eating lettuce
And one was eating figs
There was one with his wife
And oh, how ugly was his wife!
They're so lucky, the people of Tanourine
How empty their minds are
And they don't know, Aliya, how beautiful your eyes are!
How beautiful they are!
 
On the roaring of the bus
Which was taking us
From the village of Himlaya to the village of Tanourine
I remembered you, Aliya, and I remembered your eyes
And damn your eyes, Aliya, how pretty they are!
 
We were riding
Riding without paying
We were riding
Riding without paying
Sometimes we would hold the door for the driver
And sometimes we would hold the passengers for him
And the one with his wife,
She got dizzy and fainted on his shoulders
I swear to you, if he had only seen how pretty your eyes are
He would have left her to go to Tanourine by herself
 
On the roaring of the bus
Which was taking us
From the village of Himlaya to the village of Tanourine
I remembered you, Aliya, and I remembered your eyes
And damn your eyes, Aliya, how pretty they are!
 
On the roaring of the bus
Which was taking us
From the village of Himlaya to the village of Tanourine
I remembered you, Aliya, and I remembered your eyes
And damn your eyes, Aliya, how pretty they are!
