I Found a Rose in the Devil's Garden - Sterling Trio - 1921

Описание: The illustrations around the edges of the screen are of the giant lady featured looming over a city (possibly London) from the sheet music for this song. I love her headdress, or is it possibly a small dragon perched on her head? Either way, she looks great! Take a look at the sheet music here: https://levysheetmusic.mse.jhu.edu/co...

The film featured in the video during the musical interludes is The Bee and the Rose (L'abeille et la rose), a short film from 1908


Lost in a city that has no pity I found a rose,
Little lonesome rose;
Where smiling faces, hide broken hearts,
In happy places, where sorrow starts:

I found a rose, in the devil's garden,
Wandring alone, little lonesome rose,
For her the sun is never shining,
For her the clouds have, no silver lining
I found a rose, in the devil's garden,
Playing the game, of the Moth and Flame,
Beneath the powder and paint,
Maybe the heart of a saint,
Where sorrow grows, I found a rose.

For her the clouds have, no silver lining

Playing the game, of the Moth and Flame,
Beneath the powder and paint,
Maybe the heart of a saint,
Where sorrow grows, I found a rose.
