A dreaming rose
Language: English
The love of my heart is a dreaming rose Awaiting the sun and the dew; The flow'r of my heart it is folded close, It waits for a touch from you. Come softly and waken from its repose The blossom that slumbers fast; For the fragrance of love in that dreaming rose Shall waken for you at last.
