Alas, my love, you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
And I have loved you so long
Delighting in your company
My smock of gold so crimson red
With pearls bedecked sumptuously
The like no other lasses had
And yet thou wouldst not love me
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleves was my heart of gold
And who but my Greensleeves
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
Well, I pray to God on high
That my constancy mayest see
And that yet once before I die
Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleves was my heart of gold
And who but my Greensleeves
Aahh...
Greensleeves, now farewell! Adieu
God I pray to prosper thee
For I am still thy lover true
Come once again and love me
Aahh...
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my Greensleeves
