Is not the rose for me.
The rose that all are praising
Is not the rose for me.
Oh! no! we never mention her,
Her name is never heard;
My lips are now forbid to read more

Her name is never heard;
My lips are now forbid to speak
That once familiar word.

To her caverns, pure and deep.
Friends depart, and memory takes them
To her caverns, pure and deep.
