(Verse on the front side.)
To live in hearts we
Leave behind is not to die
(Verse on the right side.)

Ruby deep ruby red
Thy petals abound thee
Queen and most beautiful
So rightly they crowned thee
(Verse on the backside.)
Over the mountain tall
Over the garden wall
Kissing the crown
Of the ruby red rose

(Verse on the left side.)
Ever some reverie
Embowered with memories
And ever a garden
Wherein grows the rose
