Dear Mallika

[Chorus: Kathy Magestro & Heike Thurjung] Sous le dôme épais Où le blanc jasmin À la rose s’assemble Dear Mallika Sur la rive en fleurs Riant au matin Viens, descendons ensemble [Verse 1: LL Cool J] Dear Mallika, I've been missing you in my soul Haven't seen you in what seems like centuries I'm so cold And although I know you're safe in paradise Still I can't help but worry For your safety I pay any price I'm sorry I didn't recognize your father's struggle But it's hard to be understanding with the amount of tasks I juggle When I think of paradise And the natural spring flowing I get jealous of your father Fearing your love for him might be growing [Chorus: Kathy Magestro & Heike Thurjung] Sous le dôme épais Où le blanc jasmin À la rose s’assemble Dear Mallika Sur la rive en fleurs Riant au matin Viens, descendons ensemble [Verse 2: LL Cool J] Dear Mallika When I held you in my arms Your skin was like a rose slightly caressed by the sun I chose you before anyone Walked through the garden barefoot Tasting mangoes in the forest My feelings can't be captured by an artist It was beautiful in every heavenly way imagined You're my hero For you Id slay any dragon Dig tunnels to the depths of my own weakness I miss all your grandeur, your splendor, your sweetness Your eloquence fine raiment's sensitivity In a land of thousand paradises You're the epitome And I'm missing you For love intensifies from yearning I have a smoke filled aura For my insides are burning My love is in your shadows My prayers are always near And although I live oppressed Mallika I have no fear For I know that destiny will cause our paths to cross And I shall possess once more The love I almost lost Yes, yes [Chorus: Kathy Magestro & Heike Thurjung] Sous le dôme épais Où le blanc jasmin À la rose s’assemble Dear Mallika Sur la rive en fleurs Riant au matin Viens, descendons ensemble [Verse 3: LL Cool J] As for me sweet Mallika, my country's in upheaval Menus hearts have darkened Seduced by silent evil They oppress me for colour, class, even religion Vacuums filled with narcissism sucking up the living Colonial mentality Conquerors of peaceful tribes I suffocate and grow weary trying to stand in the tide But just knowing that one day Ill have Mallika by my side Helps me live on through the storm And pull the thorns from my side [Chorus: Kathy Magestro & Heike Thurjung] Sous le dôme épais Où le blanc jasmin À la rose s’assemble Dear Mallika Sur la rive en fleurs Riant au matin Viens, descendons ensemble [Outro: LL Cool J] Dear Mallika Sweet sweet sweet sweet Mallika For an eternity, I shall love you eternally Wherever you go, my heart goes with you Ill always love you We will always be one
