Lyrics
Silken veil and crown of gold
As the prophecies foretold
Seven drummers praised Oshun
As you walked into the room.
Captivated by your smile
Crystal, shining like the Nile
I am lost, I'm in a trance
I had to beg you for a dance.
Queen of Sheba, dance for me
Touch my soul and set me free.
Come and take me by the hand.
I just want to be your king.
All the noblemen of Thebes
Offer fur and diamond rings
Anything you want, indeed,
But can they give you what you need.
I am a poor and humble man
But darling everything I have.
I will lay down at your feet
If you would only dance for me.
Queen of Sheba, dance for me
Touch my soul and set me free.
Come and take me by the hand.
I just want to be your king.
A song of praise to Yemaya
Sheba looked into my eyes
She moved her hips from left to right
Said come and dance with me tonight.
And as the drummers called Shango
Queen Sheba danced into my soul
She said, "Omowale? Is that your name?
Well, Omowale, be my king."
Queen of Sheba, dance for me
Touch my soul and set me free.
Come and take me by the hand.
I just want to be your king.
