Night in Tunesia - Dizzy Gillespie, Don Byas

The moon is the same moon above you

A glow in its cool evening light

The stars are aglow in Tunisia

Never does it shine so bright

The cares of the days seem to vanish

The ending of day brings release

Each wonderful night in Tunisia

Where the nights are filled with peace.

The stars are aglow in heavens

But only the wise understand

That shining tonight in Tunisia

They guide you through descent sand

And words fail to tell a tale exoticto be taid

Each night’s a deeper night in a worldages old

The cares of the world seem to vanish

The ending of day brings release

Each wonderful night in Tunisia

Where the nights are filled with peace.
