VERSE 01: I saw her face ‘twas in the marketplace/In old Bagdad, what cheeks she had,/Like a bed, full of roses./I stood a while until I saw her smile,/Then I smiled too, and so would you,/Listen now, this is how the story goes: VERSE 02: I see a star a shining afar,/A star of love, from far above,/Calling me over the ocean./In all my dreams I see her so it seems,/Tho’ we’re apart, down in my heart;/On a throne there’s my own Sahara Rose: CHORUS: There where the temples stand/In that land over the burning sand,/There in a bower rare/Like a flower fair/In the hour of pray’r/She fell in love, and so did I ‘neath the azure sky/Sweetheart why why did we say goodbye/But I suppose only Allah knows/That’s how the story goes of my Sahara Rose. | |
