The Last Rose Of Summer Lyrics - Nana Mouskouri

'Tis the last rose of summer, left blooming all alone 

All her lovely companions are faded and gone. 

No flower of her kindred, no rose bud is nigh 

To reflect back her blushes and give sigh for sigh. 

I'll not leave thee, thou lone one! to pine on the stem 

Since the lovely are sleeping, go sleep thou with them 

'Thus kindly I scatter thy leaves o'er the bed 

Where thy mates of the garden lie scentless and dead. 

So soon may I follow, when friendships decay 

And from love's shining circle the gems drop away 

When true hearts lie wither'd and fond ones are flown 

Oh! who would inhabit this bleak world alone!
