The Mountain Rose

On my way to the mountain

I met a lonely rose hiding in the bushes

She smiled and said "good morning"

I said you are sweet

How much wonderful and charming you are?

She danced and said "come near me"

I said how invigorating fragrance you have

She said "come touch me my dear"

I said 'Oh', how beautiful your touch?

She said "hug me, I am lonely"

I got closer and closer.

I picked her from her branch

She said "Oh you killed me darling"

Her petals dew were her tears

I sighed "no, what I have done"?

She sighed and faintly said

"Do not cry"

Wipe your misty eyes dear

The lives of roses are too short

I looked at her with sorrow

I kissed her and hugged her

and said "Oh' rose, goodbye"
