YELLOW ROSES
When comes this mist of sweet perfume of fragrant blooming roses That fills the air at early dawn and after daylight closes, When through the night the ANGEL sings and her audience applauses It’s that ANGEL, fairest of all, so fond of yellow roses. The sky has changed its greyish veil for that of deep azure, And creamy clouds are floating high and dancing crystal pure; While near these fairy clouds she sings, that ANGEL in her glory, Where sunbeams darting to and fro as she tells us her story, When drops this ANGEL from the sky, and her audience applauses That ANGEL, the fairest of all, so fond of yellow roses. The trees spread out their leafy arms, the meadows bloom with flowers; The air is cooled, the dust is laid by calm, refreshing showers; The sun is up at early morn his eyes he barely closes, For the ANGEL is with us now, so fond of yellow roses. Rich perfume so fills the air, the world seems full of roses; A rosy crown they've made for HER, and crowned her Queen of Roses.
