Green Sleeves |
| Greensleeves was my delight |
| Greensleeves was all my joy |
| Greensleeves was my heart of gold, |
| And who but my lady greensleeves. |
| My men were clothed all in green, |
| And they did ever wait on thee; |
| All this was gallant to be seen, |
| And yet thou wouldst not love me. |
| Thou couldst desire no earthly thing, |
| But still thou hadst it readily. |
| Thy music still to play and sing; |
| And yet thou wouldst not love me. |
| Greensleeves was my delight |
| Greensleeves was all my joy |
| Greensleeves was my heart of gold, |
| And who but my lady greensleeves. |
| Alas, my love, you do me wrong, |
| To cast me off discourteously. |
| And I have loved you well and long, |
| Delighting in thy company. |
