Lyrics
VERSE 1 : Camel trappings jingle , Harp strings sweetly tingle , With a sweet voice mingle , Underneath the stars ; Singing , memories are bringing Temple bells are crying for my love afar . CHORUS : Hindustan , Where we stopped to rest our tired caravan , Hindustan , Where the painted peacock proudly spread his fan , Hindustan , Where the purple sunbird flashed across the sand , Hindustan , Where I met her and the world began . VERSE 2 : Shades of night are falling , Nightingales are calling , Ev'ry heart enthralling , Underneath the stars ; Sighing , like the night wind dying , Soft my heart is crying for my love afar .
