Kashmiri Song - Richard Tauber, Amy Woodforde-Finden, Percy Kahn

Pale hands I loved beside the Shalimar

Where are you now?

Who lies beneath your spell?

Whom do you lead on Rapture’s roadway, far

Before you agonise them in farewell?

Pale hands I loved beside the Shalimar

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

Pale hands, pink tipped, like Lotus buds that float

On those cool waters where we used to dwell

I would have rather felt you round my throat

Crushing out life, than waving me farewell!

Pale hands I loved beside the Shalimar

Where are you now?

Where lies your spell?
