jennifer higdon - a rose in october كلمات الأغنية

i strayed, all alone, where the autumn
had swept, in her petulant wrath:
all the flowers, that had bloomed in the garden
she had gathered, and flung in her path
and i saw the dead face of the lily
struck down, by the rain and the sleet
and the pink, with her lashes yet weeping
drooped low in the dust, at my feet

the leaves on the branches still swinging
were blanched with the crimson of death;
and the vines that still clung to the trеllis
were palsied, and shook at a brеath
and i sighed: ” so hath fate, like the autumn
swept over my path, till i see
as i walk through life’s desolate garden
not a rose is left blooming for me! ”

“heigho!” said a voice of low laughter —
“how blind are you poets!” and there
at the gate, just in front of me, leaning
stood rosalind may, i declare!
i stammered, confused, for the moment;
but was blest for the rest of my life
for my rose of october there promised
she’d bloom for me aye, as — my wife
