King Herod gave a banquet for all his leading man

They ate and drank and they were pleased

He called for his daughter, he loved her for her beauty

"Dance for me at this feast"

"Ask me for anything all that you want, an I will give it to you"

She smiled at him gently and thougt by herself

This day you will regret

No longer I´m your daughter, I want to kiss that prophet

Or otherwise he will be dead

The night of the seven veils - she wants to seduce him

The night of the seven veils - she wants to confuse him

The night of the seven veils - he just let her feel his hate

The night of the seven veils - and so she wants his head onto a plate

Her dances were bewitching, she danced the seven veils

She was so passionate and pure

The guests and her fahter they cheere more and more

Her father promised her for sure

"Ask me for anything, all that you want, and I will give it to you"

"I love John the Baptist, but he won´t look at me

He just found words of disdain

All that I will ask for the head of John my lover

This is the pleasure for my pain"

The night of the seven veils...
