 Wings of Solomon

One day out of the blue I came.

Gift to King Solomon was me.

With my help he did rise to fame.

No one knows how I came to be.

Sixty miles long and wide went I

Upon the winds, my silks unfurled,

I'd take King Solomon to fly

In just hours around the world.

On me enthroned the King held court.

Under us lands and oceans passed.

Armies with horses we'd transport.

None else on earth could move so fast.

'Round the world Solomon would go.

I, flying carpet, made it so.
