[Verse 3]
It is written in the soul of the desert
It is written in the signs in the stars
It is written in the sands of the hour-glass
It is written
It is written in the eye of the falcon
It is written in the shade of the scorpion
It is written in the wealth of the sun
It is written
It is written that man's truth is a mirage
It is written that death is an oasis
It is written for all unbelievers
It is written

[Verse 4]

Guide us O' thou genie of the smoke
Lead us to a thousand and one nights
In the perfumed garden of
In the perfumed garden of
In the perfumed garden of delights

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

@callcopse the way I perceive the lyrics.. I feel that is something hidden or extremely shown in the words of this song: There is something, not drugs, anything that makes people act outside their “logical” box and feel their fellow people , any color any age any gender any “race” they may belong to. People are all in their core philanthropists and in general they were born in this words as a part of it, and that is to love one another to love animals to love nature to want the life to continue all together as a...
