The night howl standing
On the tree branch watching the raid
The torch lights shining
The arrogant voices in the air
The snoop gang wants to change
The close proximity issues
Of the people in the dim light
They shouldn't be out in the open
The raids net a few couples
They are handcuffed and brought to the vans
They will be charged under the religious edict
Of the unmarried couples in close activities
On the Moonlight Bay
The man watches the events
Unfolding right in his eyes
He sits alone strumming his guitar
The owl flaps its wings
It takes off into the night sky
Flying around to see
What else the raiding party will do?
The owls sees the torch lights
Beaming into the night on the beach
Behind rocks and secluded spots
And cars parked near to the area
The man stares into the night
The snoop gang never wants to ask him why
Alone on his spot he forgets about them
He is in tune to his own affairs
He listens to the owl
Flying round and round
For the night of peace
The snoop gang disturbing
The lonely man gets up
He decides to take a walk
On the soft beach he puts his marks
Of the journey in the night
The owl returns to its spot
On the tree branch it stops
Clinging it on tightly it looks
The whole scenes in its eyes
In the darkness of the moonlight
The man hears the soft whirring sound
As he walks on the sandy beach
He is tuning his ears to the unwanted echo
“Dare to take him down?
He's alone walking on the beach”
“You don't be a fool
I know the guy years ago”
“You know him?
So it is good then
We can bring him down
For we aren't the losers!”
“The night is his element
You mustn't dare him to fight
He can take you down in seconds
Believe me you don't want to entangle him!”
“You are yellow
You know that too?
There is money to make
And you chicken out quickly!”
“I tell you
You shouldn't entangle with him
You will regret it even it is too late
Heed my advice and disappear”
“You are yellow
You can't even see you
In this dark night why so afraid?
He will bite your neck?”
“You don't understand
He has the magic in his self
He can listen even without seeing
He knows we are coming”
“Nay you are talking yellow
It's time you learn to attack
We don't give the opponent leeway
We take them by surprise!”
“You are watching too many movies
The guy is alone playing his guitar
Now he is walking right to us
What's more you want?”
The Moonlight Bay
The waves singing its praises
The hands clawing eagerly to the shore
The moments of exhilaration
The guitar-man walks
Putting footsteps on the beach
He has no worries around himself
The night is his to take
Then he just disappears
Under the watchful eyes of the aggressors
Like a white smoke he has gone
The beach wooing the waves
“Where does he go?”
The leader wants to know
“I told you yet you don't believe me
Now he is coming for us!”
“You are just plain yellow
Nobody around you cry like baby
What's with you anyway?”
“I am not going to listen here”
The guy runs away
Climbing up the slope
He reaches for his car
Then he sees the guitar-man
“You scared me shit!
How you come here so fast?”
“You still mix with the wrong crowd
You haven't learned your ways have you?”
“Now get into your car
And give me your car's key
You shouldn't go anywhere tonight”
“But I need to go home!”
“You are lucky today
You shouldn't extend your luck
Now shut up and stay in your car
Unless you want to disappear for good?”
