Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have loved you well and long,
Delighting in your company.
Ref: Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my Lady Greensleeves
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.
R: Greensleeves ...
R: Greensleeves ...
Well i have wished with many a sigh
That thou my constancy mayst see
And that yet once before I die
Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me
