MOSQUITOES by AL-SUMAISIR

First Line: MOSQUITOES ARE SUCKING / MY BLOOD LIKE SWEET WINE
Last Line: EACH VEIN IS A STRING.
Subject(s): MOSQUITOES;

Mosquitoes are sucking
My blood like sweet wine,
And hey noddy-noddy
They merrily sing.

How nimbly they're plucking,
These minstrels divine!
Their lute is my body,
Each vein is a string.
