玫瑰玫瑰最娇美, 玫瑰玫瑰最艳丽长夏开在枝头上, 玫瑰玫瑰我爱你玫瑰玫瑰情意重, 玫瑰玫瑰情意浓长夏开在荆棘里, 玫瑰玫瑰我爱你心的誓约,心的情意, 圣洁的光辉照大地心的誓约,心的情意, 圣洁的光辉照大地玫瑰玫瑰枝儿细, 玫瑰玫瑰刺儿锐今朝风雨来摧残, 伤了嫩枝和娇蕊玫瑰玫瑰心儿坚, 玫瑰玫瑰刺儿尖来日风雨来摧毁, 毁不了并蒂连理玫瑰玫瑰我爱你
Lyrics in English:
Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart What is your future? now we have to part Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay Make way, oh, make way for my Eastern Rose Men crowd in dozens everywhere she goes In her rickshaw on the street or in a cabaret "Please make way for Rose" you can hear them say All my life I shall remember Oriental music and you in my arms Perfumed flowers in your tresses Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms Rose, Rose I love you with your almond eyes Fragrant and slender ' neath tropical skies I must cross the seas again and never see you more 'way back to my home on a distant shore
