I fell asleep and I had a dream.
I dreamt that an exhausted caravan trailed along the desert,
where I led it. And that a fabulous mirage arose before us.
And that you [yourself] were this mirage
with lakes for eyes and with orchards for a body.
And that you rushed toward me, and that my desperate comrades
Lay down to die.
I pronounced your name to start that dream from the beginning...
Alas! you never see the same mirage twice.
