Lyrics
Silent and golden the sun rays appear
Birds sing a carol gay
The hills and the valleys re-echo their song
At the birth of a new born day
Dew drops are sparkling on each blushing rose
The brook in the bright sunlight gleams
Soft breezes are calling, where natures at play
In the wonderful land of Rose Dreams
Shadows are falling, the woodland is still
The songbirds are seeking their rest
While blossoms are nodding in tender repose
As the sun slowly sinks in the West
Refrain
Bright stars are gleaming high in the Heavens
Softly the moon floods the earth with her beams
Night spreads her mantel all nature is sleeping
As we journey in slumber to the land to Rose Dreams
