Ah, may the red rose live always,
To smile upon earth and sky!
Why should the beautiful ever weep?
Why should the beautiful die?

Lending a charm to ev'ry ray
That falls on her cheeks of light,
Giving the zephyr kiss for kiss,
And nursing the dewdrop bright.

Ah! may the red rose live always,
To smile upon earth and sky!
Why should the beautiful ever weep?
Why should the beautiful die?

Long may the daisies dance the field,
Frolicking far and near,
Why should the innocent hide their heads?
Why should the innocent fear?

Spreading their petals in mute delight,
When mornin' its radiance breaks,
Keeping a floral festival
Till the night-loving primrose wakes.

Long may the daisies dance the field,
Frolicking far and near,
Why should the innocent hide their heads?
Why should the innocent fear
