Anyone remember/know the lyrics to this song?

I know bits and pieces

"Once upon a kingdom
not very long ago
a king looked out the window of his palace

He noticed something lacking
a garden to behold
a something something
something something flowers

he called the finest gardeners and the land they sowed and plowed
till early in the springtime a bud began to sprout

a rose among the flowers, a treasure for the king
Dodi yarad l'gano lilkot shoshanim

the garden grew and flourshed
some more parts

and then

one day, one early morning, when the sun something shown
the king came to the garden and plucked it for his own

a rose among the flowers, a treasure for the king
Dodi yarad l'gano lilkot shoshanim

Anon just cuz I'm asking people in my life who are on Imamother also

Once upon a kingdom not very long ago
A king looked out the window of his tower.
He noticed one thing lacking, a garden to behold,
The fragrance and the colors of the flower.

He called his royal gardeners and the land they sowed and plowed
And early in the springtime a bud began to sprout...

Chorus:
A rose among the flowers, a treasure for the king
Dodi Yarad L'gano lilkot Shoshanim

The garden grew and flourished with petals large and bright
A rich bouquet to fill the king's desire
They came from near and far to enjoy this splended sight
but one outstanding bloom they all admired

Upon it eyes would linger and the people laughed and smiled
The beauty of it's vibrance held a message for each child

chorus....

the years passed very quickly and each and every spring
The rose surpassed itself in its perfection
The pride of all the people, the pleasure of the king
It earned his special love and his affection

So early one fine morning while the sun still brightly shone
The king went to his garden and he plucked it for his own....

chorus....

Oh how can we continue oh how can we go on
without the rose the peoples' hearts were breaking
now their lives seemed empty, the garden so forlorn,
They cried and grieved, their precious bloom was taken.

But we must draw our comfort from the joy it used to bring...
and somewhere in the palace sits a rose beside the king...

chorus....

I'm bolding changes as to how I remember it, though probably chayalles is right[/b]
