Déesse ? qui plaît la ruine des roses,
Prolonge la nuit !

Goddess who delights in the ruin of the rose, Prolong the night!

Prolonge la Nuit (Prolong the Night), trans. Margaret PorterRenee Vivien
Everytime we got off the plane that day, three times they gave me the yellow roses of Texas. But in Dallas they gave me red roses. I thought how funny, red roses — so all the seat was full of blood and red roses.
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
Roses are shining in Picardy
In the hush of the silver dew;
Roses are flowering in Picardy
But there's never a rose like you.
And the roses will die with the summer time
And our roads may be far apart,
But there's one rose that dies not in Picardy;
'Tis the rose that I keep in my heart.Fred Weatherly
We bring roses, beautiful fresh roses,
Dewy as the morning and colored like the dawn.Thomas Buchanan Read
I have forgot much, Cynara! gone with the wind,
Flung roses, roses riotously with the throngErnest Dowson
Je consens, ou plutôt j'aspire ? ma ruine.
