Lyrics
I came across the barren plain
To seek for love but all in vain,
O'er desert lands where my trail was going
Then I found a rose a-growing.
Chorus:
I found a desert rose
That grew in Arab Land
A sweet rose in repose
Amid the arid sand
Mid desolation there
This flower fair in blossom
At love my journey's close
I found my desert rose.
