Deanna Durbin sings The Last Rose of Summer/mp3

I've decided to add this beautiful song from mp3 record. See saryt22 and violinthief for video.
THE LAST ROSE OF SUMMER (Thomas Moore)
'Tis the last rose of summer
Left blooming alone
All her lovely companions
Are faded and gone
No flower of her kindred
No rosebud is nigh
To reflect back her blushes
Or give sigh for sigh
I'll not leave thee thou lone one
To pine on the stern
Since the lovely are sleeping
Go sleep thou with them
Thus kindly I'll scatter
Thy leaves over the bed
Where thy mates of the garden
Lie scentless and dead
So soon may I follow
When friendships decay
And from love's shining circle
The gems drop away
When true hearts lie withered
And fond ones are flown
Oh! Who would inhabit
This bleak world alone

Ethereal - thank you.

A beautiful song written in 1850 by Irish poet Thomas Moore, very sad to see it being credited to Paddy Moloney (The Chieftains) at the end of Michael Moore's film. Credit where credit is due!

Yes, mee, too (Last Rose of Summer, Michael Moore)... the scene, when Franklin D Roosevelt was buried...

the first time i hear this song was in the last movie of michael moore. so deep; so epic.

Makes Hayley Westenra, the Celtic Women & Charlotte Church versions seem pathetic by comparison.

Brilliantly used in the film "Capitalism: A Love Story".
