When You Appear On Your Doorstep

He: When you appear on your doorstep
so beautiful, so luscious
say a word my beauty !
She: don’t look at me boy
I’m forbidden fruit.

He: When you appear at night
shining like the moon
never will I give up on you
oh my beauty.
She: I’m forbidden.

He: You have the scent
of a spring flower.
Your black eyes
set my heart on fire!
She: God gave me those eyes
to make you blind !

He: You’ll be mine one day
my bride forever.
All dressed in white
you’ll be mine and only mine.
Oh my beauty, my forbidden fruit.
