〈MARSINAH〉Oh, why do the leaves
On a Mulberry tree
Whisper differently now
And why is the nightingale singing
At noon on a Mulberry bow
For some most mysterious reason
This isn't the garden I know
No, it's paradise now
That was only a garden
A moment ago
〈CALIPH〉Take my hand
I'm a stranger in paradise
All lost in a wonderland
A stranger in paradise
If I stand starry-eyed
That's a danger in paradise
For mortals who stand beside
An angel like you
I saw your face
And I ascended
Out of the commonplace
Into the rare
Somewhere in spacе
I hang suspended
Until I know
Therе's a chance that you care
Won't you answer the fervent prayer
Of a stranger in paradise
Don't send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger for
But open your angel's arms
To the stranger in paradise
And tell him that he need be
A stranger no more
〈MARSINAH〉I saw your face
And I ascended
Out of the commonplace
Into the rare
〈MARSINAH & CALIPH〉Somewhere in space
I hang suspended
〈MARSINAH〉Until I know
There's a chance that you care
Won't you answer the fervent prayer
Of a stranger in paradise
〈CALIPH〉Don't send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger for
〈MARSINAH & CALIPH〉But open your angel's arms
To the stranger in paradise
And tell me that I need be
A stranger no more
