Lyrics
Desert shadows creep across purple sands
Natives kneel in prayer by their caravans,
There silhouetted under an eastern star
I see my long lost blossom of Shalimar
CHORUS:
You, MISIRLOU, Are the moon and the sun
Fairest one, Old Temple Bells are calling across the sand.
We'll find our Kismet answering love's command
You, MISIRLOU, Are a dream of delight,
In the night To an oasis sprinkled by stars above
Heaven will guide us, Allah will bless our love
Ah, Ah, MISIRLOU.
