Kashmiri Song—often recognized by its opening line “Pale hands I loved beside the Shalimar”—is a 1902 art song composed by Amy Woodforde‑Finden, set to a poem by Laurence Hope (the pseudonym of Violet Nicolson). It became the most famous of the four songs in Four Indian Love Lyrics and remained a popular drawing‑room piece well into the early 20th century.
