Lyrics
Kanun Solo
Hook
Sâkî, pour it red
(hm-hm)
Remember what was said
(word for word)
Eyes down, ears wide
(smile)
Nothing they can hide
(nothing)
Verse
Lamps along the tiled arcade
Pashas murmur, deals are made
Silver ewer on my hip
Not a word slips past my lip
To them I'm part of the décor
So they talk while I pour more
Instrumental
Hook
Sâkî, pour it red
(hm-hm)
Remember what was said
(word for word)
Eyes down, ears wide
(smile)
Nothing they can hide
(nothing)
Verse
The vizier drains a second glass
Swears the Sultan's reign will pass
I refill it, lids half closed
Fold the secret, smile composed
Upstairs the Valide sits awake
Weighing which of them to break
Interlude
Men wear turbans, gold and rings
Women choose the fate of kings
Swords are loud, decrees are bold
Yet it's quiet hands that hold
Breakdown
Aman aman
(hmm)
Aman aman yar
(hmm hmm)
[Spoken] "Created by DiscoPrincess -- Royalty of the Night"
Oud Solo
Hook
Drink, my lord, it's sweet
(sweet as honey)
Dawn will bring defeat
(for you)
Bow and serve and wait
(hm-hm)
Sâkî sealed his fate
(word for word)
Instrumental
