First Glance

At first glance,
I saw only a girl dancing,
Her name was Tiffany,

But, If by accident, serendipity or by Fate's guidance,
I looked twice,

Your charm pulled me into this world far to the East,
Through song,

I have never had such a sense of passion and obsession,
That brought me into this world of miracles,

I've become obsessed with you,

This place of old and new,
This place of pain and happiness,
This place of beauty and respect,

Rising like the Phoenix out of the fires of war,
This remarkable place was re-born with youthful strength and song,

Noticing, over the years,
I have seen many wondrous things,
From this far off place to the East,
They call a miracle,

I've cried with your pain and smiled
With your joy!

Many times, I have wondered,
If your streets are only but a dream?

I look with my eyes,
I hear your voices and music with my ears,
But I truly see you in my dreams.
