The Last Rose of Summer Lyrics

The Last Rose Of Summer - Amelita Galli-Curci

'Tis the last rose of summer

 

Left blooming alone

 

All her lovely companions are faded and gone

 

No flower of her kindred

 

No rosebud is nigh

 

To reflect back her blushes

 

Or give sigh for sigh

 

So soon may I follow

 

When friendships decay

 

And from love's shining circle

 

The gems drop away

 

When true hearts lie withered

 

And fond ones are flown

 

Oh who would inhabit

 

 

This bleak world alone
