My desert is waiting;
Dear, come there with me
I’m longing to teach you
Love’s sweet melody
I’ll sing a dream-song to you
Painting a picture for two:
Blue heaven and you and I And sand kissing a moonlit sky
A desert breeze whisp’ring a lullaby
Only stars above you
To see I love you
Oh, give me that night divine
And let my arms in yours entwine
The desert song calling
Its voice enthralling
Will make you mine
Cool zephyrs shall fan you
In noon’s fiery hour
While shady oases
We’ll seek for a bow’r
Allah sends gifts from above;
Gives you my life and my love
Blue heaven and you and I And sand kissing a moonlit sky
A desert breeze whisp’ring a lullaby
Only stars above you
To see I love you
Oh, give me that night divine
And let my arms in yours entwine
The desert song calling
Its voice enthralling
Will make you mine
