In my life the rose has a special,
Beautiful meaning to me,
And each sweet friend is a lovely rose,
In brilliance e'er flowery.

There is a beauty in this Earth that,
Springs up like the roses are,
Abloom and bursting forth with sweetness,
Filling my heart from afar.

Each one has a radiant beauty,
Like the glory of sunrise,
Awakening my heart to rejoice,
Honoring each sweet surprise.

Within its beauty there's a bouquet,
Of words releasing perfume,
Sweet as the rose flowering into,
My soul as memories bloom.

For in its beauty inspiring me,
I hear its song lovingly,
Singing a sweet melody always,
Soothing the heart of me.

My sweet beautiful rose you present,
Blessings every time you write,
Decorating me in happiness,
You're like a star shining bright.

Yes you my friend in all this splendor,
Share your love and sweetest heart,
Blessing me with your precious words Oh,
My love for you will ne'er part.

In my life the rose has a special,
Beautiful meaning to me,
And each sweet friend is a lovely rose,
In brilliance e'er flowery.
