Leila came into water
And a pitcher of water gained .
Oh, there was water ice ,
And Leila stood barefoot .
I brought the horse drink ,
Thirst on a hot day, quench .
Many days I led the caravan
By different countries fabulous .
Layla, Layla, Layla Lei- , Leu- la
Was a proud and young .
Layla, Layla, Layla Lei- , Leu- la
I took heart .
Layla, Layla, Layla Lei- , Leu- la
Was a proud and young .
Layla, Layla, Layla Lei- , Leu- la
I took heart .
Diamonds , pearls , turquoise
Pale in her black eyes.
Samarkand , Cairo and Baghdad
Near the feet of Laila lie .
I visited the wonderful edges
Most unearthly cities
Skirted one time white light
But not more beautiful girls - is .
Layla, Layla, Layla Lei- , Leu- la
Was a proud and young .
Layla, Layla, Layla Lei- , Leu- la
I took heart .
Layla, Layla, Layla Lei- , Leu- la
Was a proud and young .
Layla, Layla, Layla Lei- , Leu- la
I took heart .
