Last night in Konya
A voice carried me
To the pulpit of the arrow
Did you hear it too?
The oracle was written
On a silver leaf
Last night I read the words
Did you read them too?

Precious heart, precious seed
Precious life conceived
In the ring of fire
In the sleep of peace
Nothing stops desire
For the human beat

Last night was a rapture
In the mosaic sky
Dropping shards of love
Dropping shards of love

Precious heart, precious seed
Precious life conceived
In the ring of fire
In the sleep of peace
Nothing stops desire
For the human beat
I hunger for the cooling flame
I hunger for the infinite game

Last night in Konya
A voice carried me
To the pulpit of the arrow
Did you hear it too?
The oracle was written
On a silver leaf
Last night I read the words
Did you read them too?

Devour me, ah, devour me

Oh precious life
Oh precious seed
Oh precious heart
That beats
In a ring of fire
In a sleep of peace
Nothing stops
The human beat
The human beat
