Greensleeves
Alas, my love, you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
For I have loved you so long
Delighting in your company.
I have been ready at your hand
To grant whatever you would crave
And I have waged both life and land
Your love and good will for to have.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my lady Greensleeves?
Thou couldst desire no earthly thing
But still thou hadst it readily
Thy music for to play and sing
And yet thou would not love me.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my lady Greensleeves?
I would my love entreat you still
That thou my constancy may see
For I remain thy lover true,
Come once again and love me.
To cast me off discourteously
For I have loved you so long
Delighting in your company.
I have been ready at your hand
To grant whatever you would crave
And I have waged both life and land
Your love and good will for to have.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my lady Greensleeves?
Thou couldst desire no earthly thing
But still thou hadst it readily
Thy music for to play and sing
And yet thou would not love me.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my lady Greensleeves?
I would my love entreat you still
That thou my constancy may see
For I remain thy lover true,
Come once again and love me.
