There stands a rose in your garden
You left it there all alone
It's been neglected, feels unwanted
Since no love to it is shown. 
Its beauty now is fastly fading
Once it was the brightest red
It's withering fast, its head is bowing
Since no kind words to it are said. 

Don't neglect the rose in your garden
Show it your love every day
It will bloom for you in all its beauty
And it will not fade away

I guess by now you know my story
Don't neglect a love that's true
For it may prove to be the sweetest flower
That will ever bloom for you. 

Could be your mother, sister or brother
Husband, wife or a little child
It may prove to be your own true lover
You've neglected all the while. 

Please don't neglect the rose in your garden
Show it your love every day
And it will bloom for you in all its beauty
And it will not fade away
And it will not fade away
