Kajira dancing in the night,

Kajira dancing in the night, heart and soul fly free.
All around the gathering, where she thinks noone can see.
Jumping, spinning, flaring silks, her secret smile glows.
In her private moment, when she thinks nobody knows.
Reaching for the moons and stars, though far from her they be.
And never wishing a different life, for in bondage she is free.
