Black Is the Color of My True Love's Hair |
Black, black, black is the color of my true love’s hair, |
Her lips are something rosy fair, |
The pertest (purest) face and the daintiest hands |
I love the grass wheron she stands. |
I love my love and well she knows, |
I love the grass whereon she goes; |
If she on earth no more I see, |
My life will quickly leave me. |
I go to Troublesome to mourn, to weep, |
But satisfied I ne’re can sleep; |
I’ll write her a note in a few little lines, |
I’ll suffer death ten thousand times. |
Black, black, black is the color of my true love’s hair, |
Her lips are something rosy fair, |
The purtest (purest) face and the daintiest hands, |
I love the grass whereon she stands. |
