song lyrics The Last Rose Of Summer lyrics
Tis the last rose of summer
Left blooming alone. All her lovely companions Are faded and gone. No flow r of her kindred
No rosebud is nigh
To reflect back her blushes Or give sigh for sigh.
I ll not leave thee thou lone one To pine on the stem Since the lovely are sleeping Go sleep thou with them; Thus kindly I scatter Thy leaves o er the bed
Where thy mates of the garden Lie scentless and dead.
So soon may I follow When friendships decay
And from loves shining circle The gems drop away! When true hearts lie withered And fond ones are flown Oh! Who would inhabit This bleak world alone? song lyrics
