lyrics

ANICE
Come, sit down there and I will stand before you
And tell a story.
It was about a man who had a gem earth could not buy.

NUREDDENE
As I have you.

ANICE
Be silent, sir.
He kept it
With ordinary jewels which he took
Each day and threw into the street, and said,
“I’ll show this earth that all the gems it has,
Together match not this I’ll solely keep.”

NUREDDENE
As I’ll keep you.

ANICE
Ah, but he did not know
What slender thread bound to a common pearl
That wonder.
When he threw that out, alas!
His jewel followed, and though he sought earth through,
He never could again get back his gem.
