Only a Rose from My Mother's Grave |
It’s only a rose from my mother’s grave |
That I’d planted long long ago |
I pulled it from a stem, where it used to wave |
With a windward soft and low |
It’s only a flower white and so fair |
That she used to love so well |
Sweet were the perfume that filled the air |
Round her grave down in the dell |
It’s only a rose, a fragrant white rose |
That bloomed on my mother’s grave |
Peace to her soul and blessed reposed |
With a bright rose above her way |
Only a rose from my mother’s grave |
A flower she loved when here |
I shall press it away in a book and save |
Bloom will never end in years |
For mother was like this snow white rose |
Gentle at heart and lovely too |
Soon came the twilight with repose |
Angels made her bed and knew |
Only a rose from my mother’s grave |
Kissed by dew from heaven up above |
Over her form it used to wave |
In its tenderness and love |
Only a rose, but through the years |
We’ve been in some hollow shrine |
Often our eyes will fill with tears |
Gazing on this flower divine |
