about

Poem by Sudeep Sen, No Roses written by Christina Rossetti and arranged by Ruth Angell.

lyrics

A languorous kiss
The faintest smell of ocean
Salt-lipped breeze, pleading.

No Roses ‘song’
C.G.Rossetti
Arranged Ruth Angell

When I am dead my dearest
Sing no sad songs for me
Plant though no roses at my head
Nor shady Cyprus tree.

Be the green grass above me
With showers and dewdrops wet
And if though wilt remember
And if though wilt forget.

I shall not see the sunrise
I shall not feel the rain
I shall not hear the nightingale
Sing on as if in pain.

And dreaming through the twilight
That doth not rise or set
Happily I will remember
And happily may forget.
