I am singing for you, but my beloved I am not sure what to tell you
You are an Assyrian, my dove, but you do not speak my language
Your hair is dark as night, on your shoulders placed like ropes
You are an Assyrian by blood, your eyes are giving you away

How can I tell you I love you, about my love how can I inform you?
How can you understand my words when you don’t speak my tongue?
I can read from your eyes that you are shy
I want to tell you that I love you, but I’m not sure how to inform you

Tell me why, you don’t speak my tongue
Unfortunately, my dear sweetheart, you don’t speak my tongue

You shine like the sun, in your light stars disappear in the sky
If you are a flower to me, other girls are like paper flowers
my dear, beloved daughter of Ishtar, you don’t understand my tongue
You are an Assyrian, my dove, but you do not speak my language



How can I tell you I love you, about my love how can I inform you?
How can you understand my words when you don’t speak my tongue?
I can read from your eyes that you are shy
I want to tell you that I love you, but I’m not sure how to inform you

Tell me why, you don’t speak my tongue
Unfortunately, my dear sweetheart, you don’t speak my tongue

You shine like the sun, in your light stars disappear in the sky
If you are a flower to me, other girls are like paper flowers
my dear, beloved daughter of Ishtar, you don’t understand my tongue
You are an Assyrian, my dove, but you do not speak my language
