Embrace Me Poem by Riza Braholli

Embrace me

Tonight embrace me in your arms;
On lips carnations have come into lay,
Ne'er forget, for again won't come
The fire of Moon that's in the way.

You mustn't forget, it is your night,
As well as mine, it is you know;
Hot southern wind blowing tonight
The ember of stars is high and low.

The night is burning all over the place,
Embrace me dear, do embrace...!
