Far across the desert
in ancient Mecca
where hot winds blow,
Oh, There my love lies dreaming,
while bright stars gleaming
now bid me go.

Arabian Moon
look down upon her,
Arabian Moon,
Guard me and mine,
Shine, Light my lonely pathway
across the sand dunes
to Mecca's shrine,
Your silv'ry beams of love are telling,
Oh, whisper I am coming soon.
Then o'er the desert,
to my dwelling,
back I'll bring her,
Arabian Moon.

Arabian Moon
look down upon her,
Arabian Moon,
Guard me and mine,
Shine, Light my lonely pathway
across the sand dunes
to Mecca's shrine,
Your silv'ry beams of love are telling,
Oh, whisper I am coming soon.
Then o'er the desert,
to my dwelling,
back I'll bring her,
Arabian Moon.

When the dawn is breaking
o'er ancient Mecca,
the east aglow,
Oh, Then we'll greet the morrow
our only sorrow
to see you go.

Arabian Moon
look down upon her,
Arabian Moon,
Guard me and mine,
Shine, Light my lonely pathway
across the sand dunes
to Mecca's shrine,
Your silv'ry beams of love are telling,
Oh, whisper I am coming soon.
Then o'er the desert,
to my dwelling,
back I'll bring her,
Arabian Moon.

Arabian Moon
look down upon her,
Arabian Moon,
Guard me and mine,
Shine, Light my lonely pathway
across the sand dunes
to Mecca's shrine,
Your silv'ry beams of love are telling,
Oh, whisper I am coming soon.
Then o'er the desert,
to my dwelling,
back I'll bring her,
Arabian Moon.
