The Rose Songtext
von Ola Gjeilo

The lily has a smooth stalk
Will never hurt your hand
But the rose upon her briar
Is lady of the land

When with moss and honey
She tips her bending briar
And half unfolds her glowing heart


There′s sweetness in an apple tree
And profit in the corn
But lady of all beauty
Is a rose upon a thorn

When with moss and honey
She tips her bending briar
And half unfolds her glowing heart
She sets the world on fire

When with moss and honey
She tips her bending briar
And half unfolds her glowing heart
She sets the world on fire
