Simone, Nina - The Last Rose Of Summer Lyrics
'Tis the last rose of summer
Left blooming all alone
All her lovely companions
Are faded and gone
No rose bud is nigh
To reflect back her blushes
Or give sigh for sigh
So soon may I follow
When friendships decay
And from love's shining circle
The gems drop away
When true hearts lie withered
Oh! who would inhabit
This bleak world alone

The best version of the song ever. Long time searched for it - here it is now. Thank you very much 194871max.
Her embellishments are genius!
Beautiful!
Absolutely love this. I love Moore's Melodies and Nina Simone and the combination is magical. This brings out the reedy quality of her voice that for me marks her out from others. The sadness is heart breaking....
The melody can not be attributed to Thomas Moore. However the poem/lyrics are his creation. The melody is a traditional Irish air called "Aislean an oigfear " that translates from Irish Gaelic to English as "The young man's dream". A beautiful rendition by Nina Simone none the less.
Nina was a classically trained genius who they refused her entrance to top musical school. Because what? She was too talented, she was black, she was too talented. But she showed them her real talent. MUSIC
I promise you that I love Nina more than I love myself. However, i must clarify to you that her rejection was a result of her lack of preparation. She herself confessed it to Angelou.
it's like discovering a hidden treasure since the Netflix " What happen, Miss Simone." Until then that film, I really found out how much I truly Love and Appreciate this beautiful Queen of Song. I believe her talent far outweighs her emotional flaws. She was one single woman trying to make it through this life. May her memory and legacy show the world its ok to be unique and different.. Hell... maybe sometimes even odd. May Nina Simone rest in peace.
