Rose of Palestine

Translation / Interpretation / Caption Text / Source
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 Words by Robert E. Harty

Thanks for your enthusiastic response. There are all sorts of papers waiting to be written on the materials in the collection.
Welcome to the site!
Let me know if you need copies of the music (although most it is less than stellar--it is kitsch after all).

Dear ArabKitsch Master/Mistress:
You have really done a fabulous job collecting, presenting, and analyzing this
treasure trove of material. Thank you, whoever you are.
I will direct students to this, as well as our Middle East librarian.
