Beside me, close, a sweet cashew's delight,
Beside me, close, a sweet cashew's delight.

Beside me, close, a sweet cashew's, oh, so bright,
A needle of longing, pricks my heart tonight.
Beside me, close, a sweet cashew's, oh, so bright,
A needle of longing, pricks my heart tonight.

In your words, I stumbled, fell so low,
Freely, alas, I to your kind did go.
In your words, I stumbled, fell so low,
Freely, alas, I to your kind did go.
Gave my heart, found love a cruel deceit,
Gave my heart, found love a cruel deceit.
Love's a burden, it would seem, a needle's sting, I greet.
Beside me, close, a sweet cashew's, oh, so bright,
A needle of longing, pricks my heart tonight.

Betrayal's touch, fate's cruel design,
What fault of heart, when eyes did intertwine?
Betrayal's touch, fate's cruel design,
What fault of heart, when eyes did intertwine?
Eyes had not met, eyes had not met,
If heart's strings hadn't felt regret,
Why wilt, Mimosa, shy and sore, a needle's sting, I greet?
Beside me, close, a sweet cashew's, oh, so bright,
A needle of longing, pricks my heart tonight.

Sinful eyes, oh, why to battles led,
Laughter fled, a wound within instead.
Sinful eyes, oh, why to battles led,
Laughter fled, a wound within instead.
Standing nights, and days in weary tread,
Standing nights, and days in weary tread,
Love's a burden, it would seem, a needle's sting, I greet.

Beside me, close, a sweet cashew's, oh, so bright,
A needle of longing, pricks my heart tonight.
Beside me, close, a sweet cashew's, oh, so bright,
A needle of longing, pricks my heart tonight.
