Rose of Palestine lyrics:

Dearest, the shades of night appear

Bells of the temple ringing clear,

While I sing songs of love's devotion,
Filled with dreams of you.

Chorus:

Rose of Palestine, say that you'll be mine--

My heart's calling, ever calling,

I love you thru each fleeting hour, oh, fairest flow'r,

Come let the love-light shine in your eyes divine,

Shades of night seem to beckon me,

Back to you far across the sea,

Rose of Palestine.Music by Harold Dixon
