Kismet • 1944

Jamilla:

So we meet again, my prince. Hafiz:
Let me feast my eyes on you. It really is you. This is a pleasure. After I'd given you up. How could anything so beautiful be so merciless, so cruel? We have a week of delirious happiness and suddenly you're gone. My nights are sleepless, my days burning sands. I didn't know who you were, where you were. I shouted the name Jamilla through every palace window. From Tehran to Mosul. There wasn't even an echo. Finally, I take the long journey home to Hassir, eh, my own little kingdom praying for a thunderbolt to explode you out of my heart. But no thunderbolt

Jamilla, Lady of the Moonlight.

00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:05.182

So we meet again, my prince.

00:00:09.347 --> 00:00:11.262

Let me feast my eyes on you.

00:00:12.001 --> 00:00:13.655

It really is you.

00:00:15.225 --> 00:00:16.585

This is a pleasure.

00:00:16.757 --> 00:00:18.279

I've tried giving you up.

00:00:20.788 --> 00:00:24.081

How could anything so beautiful be so merciless, so cruel?

00:00:24.056 --> 00:00:27.643

We have a week of delirious happiness and suddenly you're gone.

00:00:27.007 --> 00:00:30.505

My nights are sleepless, my days burning sands.

00:00:30.553 --> 00:00:32.468

I didn't know who you were, where you were.

00:00:32.086 --> 00:00:35.646

I shouted the name Jamilla through every palace window.

00:00:35.732 --> 00:00:37.312

From Tehran to Mosul.

00:00:37.059 --> 00:00:39.112

There wasn't even an echo.

00:00:40.558 --> 00:00:41.668

Finally,

00:00:42.147 --> 00:00:44.998

I take the long journey home

00:00:44.186 --> 00:00:45.421

to Hassir

00:00:46.129 --> 00:00:47.518

eh my own little kingdom

00:00:47.747 --> 00:00:50.687

praying for a thunderbolt to explode you out of my heart.

00:00:51.001 --> 00:00:52.611

But no thunderbolt.

00:00:53.434 --> 00:00:54.043

Charming.

00:00:55.598 --> 00:00:56.823

I ride home.

00:00:56.986 --> 00:00:58.003

I am desolate.

00:00:58.958 --> 00:01:00.117

In my palace,

00:01:00.174 --> 00:01:02.074

I have a corner I call the Garden of the Stars.

00:01:02.788 --> 00:01:03.793

I like that.

00:01:04.119 --> 00:01:06.001

There I sat night after night.

00:01:06.001 --> 00:01:07.843

And with my astrologers...

00:01:08.637 --> 00:01:11.184

A very stupid lot. They don't know anything about women.

00:01:11.414 --> 00:01:13.005

But you do, my prince.

00:01:13.262 --> 00:01:16.593

There never was another woman in all the world I couldn't forget but you.

00:01:25.104 --> 00:01:28.001

You weren't looking for me in that cafe where they found you.

00:01:28.604 --> 00:01:31.485

But how fortunate I was there. It was the hand of fate.

00:01:31.526 --> 00:01:32.503

Kiss me.

00:01:32.551 --> 00:01:34.999

- Kiss? - What else?

00:01:34.536 --> 00:01:35.999

I stopped a fight in the street.

00:01:35.883 --> 00:01:38.001

I took a poor old battered lad inside and washed the blood off him.

00:01:38.809 --> 00:01:40.801

A foul, reeking place, yes, but I...

00:01:40.848 --> 00:01:42.001

I couldn't leave him in the street, could I?

00:01:42.864 --> 00:01:44.097

And you couldn't keep Laeida waiting, could you?

00:01:45.001 --> 00:01:47.919

How could you profane this moment with chatter like that?

00:01:48.003 --> 00:01:49.996

After the torture you've made me endure.

00:01:50.997 --> 00:01:52.001

Adorable man, don't stop. Don't ever stop.
