by Ferdinand Vetter (1847 - 1924), as Friedrich Volker

Im Monat der Rosen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Im Monat der Rosen
Ein Röslein am Hut,
Ein Röslein im Herzen,
So wandert sich's gut:

Das eine zum Tragen
Als [Zierde bunt]1,
Das andre zum Lieben
Von Herzensgrund.

Das eine zum Welken
Nach kurzer Zeit -
Das andre zum Lieben
In Ewigkeit. -
