Greensleeves

Oh a family of bards
A travelling went
to distant lands
A singing sweet
With pipes and strings
And an open heart
Just to wish their brothers
the good life

Greensleeves was all our joy
Greensleeves was our delight
Greensleeves our heart of gold
And who but our noble greensleeves

In "Dante's" land,
oh there they marble strong,
to see this celtic bloods
sincerety,
a look
a smile
Even a tiny gift
and turned their backs
though curtesely

Greensleeves was all our joy
Greensleeves was our delight
Greensleeves our heart of gold
And who but our noble greensleeves

Then come to the citiy
of a waltz
they say:
"There they'll love you
passionately".
But in truth
they werd given no time
and even scorned
for the city of music
Is gone for gold

Greensleves was all our joy
Greensleeves was our delight
Greensleeves our heart of gold
And who but our noble greensleeves

So they danced their way
Though scared and pained
To Shiller's sweet haven
And dearest folk
and at last
they were watched
with wondering love,
and that lifted
this family's
saddened heart

Greensleeves was all our joy
Greensleeves was our delight
Greensleeves our heart of gold
And who but our noble greensleeves
