D: Yes, but what happens in the end?

The courtesan and sitar man,
Are pulled apart by an evil plan,
But in the end she hears his song,
And their love is just too strong...

The sitar player's secret song,
Helps them flee the evil one,
Though the tyrant rants and rails,
It is all to no avail.

Z: I am the evil maharajah!
You will not escape!

S: Oh, Harold, no one could play him like you could!
Z: No one's going to.
