[00:44.834] 'Tis the last rose of summer,
[00:51.931] Left blooming alone;
[01:00.442] All her lovely companions are faded and gone;
[01:16.106] No flow'r of her kindred,
[01:23.150] No rosebud is nigh
[01:31.562] To reflect back her blushes,
[01:38.808] Or give sigh for sigh.
[01:47.327] ...
[02:21.359] I'll not leave thee, thou lone one,
[02:28.287] To pine on the stem;
[02:36.532] Since the lovely are sleeping,
[02:43.740] Go, sleep thou with them;
[02:52.391] Thus kindly I scatter
[02:59.166] Thy leaves o'er the bed
[03:09.356] Where thy mates of the garden
[03:16.590] Lie senseless and dead.
[03:23.772] ...
[03:27.316] So soon may I follow,
[03:34.559] When friendships decay,
[03:42.981] And from love's shining circle
[03:50.236] The gems drop away!
[03:58.504] When true hearts lie wither'd,
[04:05.707] And fond ones are flown,
[04:16.549] Oh! who would inhabit
[04:23.904] This bleak world alone?
