I wanted you-I tried to take you-But when I held you in my arms-the very world did change. The evil within me died. I can bear a thousand tortures, endure a thousand deaths-but not thy tears.

  Guard : This Arab Prince is but a thief. Seek him out!

  The Princess : Quick! Hide thyself. If thou art found with me, they will be merciless. I love you.

• The Holy Man : Toil ---- for by toil the sweets of human life are found.

  The Thief of Bagdad : Thou liest! What I want - I take. My reward is *here*. Paradise is a fool's dream and Allah is a myth.

• The Thief of Bagdad : Open wide the gates of Bagdad!
