Far away across the ocean Underneath an Indian star Dwells a dark eyed lonely maiden On the coast of malabar In the harbour where we anchored I can see her shy and sweet With a bunch of wild red roses And her wild ways at her feet Oh fare thee well My little dark eyed queen Fare thee well my little star In my heart you'll live forever On the coast of Malabar <♪> Come to me I can hear her calling Cross the ocean wide and far Come to me again and love me On the coast of malabar When my thoughts keep ever turning To the far off distant shore And a dark eyed girl Who loved me But I'll see her never more Oh fare thee well My little dark eyed queen Fare thee well my Indian star In my heart you'll live forever On the coast of malabar
