Default roses are red

Hi there.

" And when the big day came,"
1. Do you call graduation day big day? Is it usual?

"Roses are red, my love.
Violets are blue."
2. What does the verse imply? Sure, most roses are red and violets are blue. So...?

" But luck, may god bless you."
3. Is the quote a common expression? Is it the same as 'good luck, may god bless you'? Which one is more common?

Note: luck can mean either good luck or bad luck, how do we know it means good luck in the verse?

I just reheard the song. The singer did sing "Good luck". Probably it's a typo.


Thanks in advance.
