The Happy Prince and The Nightingale and the Rose

“If you want a red rose,” says the Rose Tree, “you can make it out of music by moonlight, and paint it red with the blood from your own heart. Sing to me with your breast against a thorn. Sing to me all night long as the thorn pierces your heart and your blood flows into my branches.” (p.51)

 First, please explain the above sentence. This is a conversation Nightingale to Rose Tree. Nightingale, a bird try to make a red rose with the blood from her heart. This is the most shocking sentence in this book.

 This book is consists of two stories. I will introduce one of them, The nightingale and the Rose. There are young student and the Nightingale. Young student want to dance with daughter of the professor, but she said to bring red rose if you want to dance with me. He has no red rose in his garden, so the nightingale tried to search red rose, but there are no red rose around here. Then the Rose tree told the way to get red rose. It is～？
