NEFERTITI

Ride with me queen of Nubia
Take my offerings to Aten oh Nefertiti
Let the rays fall on our worship at Amarna
It’s you and I against the world for our deity

For our love did we Thebes forsake
Running from the city to this howling desert
Sowing hope’s seed in an empty place                                        
For love, let the priests call us ‘impudent’

We had to run for us to save us forever
Let’s build from this red sand a new city
Let’s rule a new kingdom together
Titi, I love you more; than royalty

Your love is that which builds a palace
Love so rare
Death can whip its chains
Rebirth will make us a pair
