Shama

Ирина Гончарова1
Like a candle in the night
Giving people warmth and light
I am burning of my love,
Your Shama

Hopeless, wordless standing there
Running tears of despair,
I pray God for mercy, love
Your Shama.

Please do come, stretch out your hand,
Hold my tears hot and wet,
Your indifference they’ll melt. Do love
Your Shama.

Look around, back, ahead,
There is nobody so mad,
So devoted, burnt in love,
Only your Shama.

Last teardrop is running down
I’ve gone in white burnt gown,
Night has gone. But there comes dawn
Of your love.
Where is your Shama?
