Lyrics

  1. I send thee red, red roses
    To tell thee of the morn
    When first among the roses
    Our happy love was born
    I send thee white, white roses
    To tell thee of the night
    The night in all its beauty
    With all its dreams and light
  2. And when thou seest the roses
    This will the roses say
    There is no day without thee
    No night when thou’rt away
    No day I do not love thee
    No night I do not pray
    That God will bless and guard thee
    For ever, night and day
