The English Rose.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Mar 2001.

Dan Cupid hath a garden,
where women are the flowers,

and lovers' laughs and lovers' tears,
The sunshine and the show'rs.

And Oh! the sweetest blossom,
That in the garden grows,

The fairest Queen,
it is, I ween,
The perfect English Rose,

The fairest Queen it is, I ween,
The perfect, the perfect English Rose!

Let others make a garland
Of ev'ry flow'r that blows!

But I will wait till I may pluck
My dainty English Rose.

In perfume, grace, and beauty,
the rose doth stand apart,

God grant that I,
before I die,
May wear one on my heart!

God grant that I, before I die,
May wear one, may wear one on my heart,

May wear one on my heart,
May wear one on my heart.
