Lyrics
In Egypt land one June
Beneath a Cairo moon,
To win the heart of a dark-eyed maid
I sang this serenade:
CHORUS:
Mylo, pretty maid of Cairo,
Can't you hear me sigh, Oh, just for you;
Moonbeams, memories of June dreams
Under a spell enthralling,
tenderly my heart is calling
Mylo, say good-bye to Cairo
On the river Nile, Oh just above,
I'll take you when the birds awake you,
I'll not forsake you, My Cairo love.
I yearn for desert skies,
I dream of two brown eyes,
A night, a maid and a moon above
Recall my song of love:
