Umm Kulthum and Omar Sharif

Came floating on a jasmine wind

From the west, from the south

Honey in my ears

Spice in my mouth.

Cleopatra and the handsome thief

Friday evening, Omar Sharif,
G A D F F# G
In black and white and blurry through tears.

My mother and I would sit there in a trace

He was cool to the marrow, the pharaoh of romance
Bm G
Sunday morning,
F#m Bm
Umm Kulthum
G A D F#m G
Her voice would fill our living room.
Em A D G
The ship from Egypt always came
C F# F
Sailing in on the radio waves
Em A D G
And the jasmine wind, deep perfume
C F# Bm
Oooh Umm Kulthum

And the living room becomes a garden,
C
And the TV set becomes a fountain,
D E
And the music flows in the garden
F
And everything grows
C#m A G#m A
Umm Kulthum and Omar Sharif
F#m B E G#m A
Came floating on a lemon leaf
F#m B G#m A
Flying in on a jasmine wind

Umm Kulthum and Omar Sharif
F#m B G#m A
And we dance with them on a jasmine scented wind,
D G# C#m
Umm Kulthum and Omar Sharif.
