The Red Rose Hath its Splendour
The red rose hath its splendour,—
The lily its white gleam,
And tender
It floats above the stream.
The sea hath sun to lighten,—
The lover hath his maid
To heighten
Love-pleasure long-delayed.
The green leaves interlacing
Have the wind's subtle breath
Embracing:—
The poet hath but death.
The lily its white gleam,
And tender
It floats above the stream.
The sea hath sun to lighten,—
The lover hath his maid
To heighten
Love-pleasure long-delayed.
The green leaves interlacing
Have the wind's subtle breath
Embracing:—
The poet hath but death.
