Greensleeves |
| Alas, my love you do me wrong |
| To cast me off discourteously |
| And I have loved you so long |
| Delighting in your company |
| I have been ready at your hand |
| to grant whatever you would crave; |
| I have both wagered life and land |
| Your love and good will for to have |
| I bought the kerchers to thy head |
| That were wrought fine and gallantly |
| I kept thee both at board and bed |
| Which cost my purse well favouredly. |
| Chorus |
| Greensleeves was all my joy |
| Greensleeves was my delight |
| Greensleeves was my heart of gold |
| And who but my Lady Greensleeves? |
| I bought thee petticoats of the best, |
| the cloth so fine as fine might be: |
| I gave thee jewels for thy chest, |
| and all this cost I spent on thee. |
| Well, I will pray to God on hie, |
| that thou my constancy maist see: |
| And that yet once before I die, |
| thou wilt vouchsafe to love me. |
| Chorus |
| Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu! |
| God I pray to prosper thee; |
| For I am still thy lover true |
| Come once again and love me. |
| Chorus |
| Who but my Lady Greensleeves? |
