Roses red and roses white
Plucked I for my love’s delight.
She would none of all my posies—
Bade me gather her blue roses.
Half the world I wandered through,
Seeking where such flowers grew
Half the world unto my quest
Answered me with laugh and jest.
It may be beyond the grave
She shall find what she would have.
Mine was but an idle quest—
Roses white and red are best!
