1. Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
1. Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
To cast me off discourteously.
Line 38: Line 39:
I have both wagered life and land,
I have both wagered life and land,
Your love and good-will for to have.  
Your love and good-will for to have.  
Greensleeves was all ...
Greensleeves was all

I gave thee jewels for thy chest,
I gave thee jewels for thy chest,
And all this cost I spent on thee.  
And all this cost I spent on thee.  
Greensleeves was all ...
Greensleeves was all

Thy petticoat of sendal right,
Thy petticoat of sendal right,
And these I bought thee gladly.  
And these I bought thee gladly.  
Greensleeves was all ...
Greensleeves was all

And that yet once before I die,
And that yet once before I die,
Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me.  
Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me.  
Greensleeves was all ...
Greensleeves was all

6. Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu,
God I pray to prosper thee,
God I pray to prosper thee,
For I am still thy lover true,
For I am still thy lover true,
Come once again and love me.
Come once again and love me.}}

1. Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have loved you well and long,
Delighting in your company.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.

2. I have been ready at your hand,
To grant whatever thou wouldst crave;,
I have both wagered life and land,
Your love and good-will for to have.
Greensleeves was all …

3. I bought thee petticoats of the best,
The cloth so fine as it might be;
I gave thee jewels for thy chest,
And all this cost I spent on thee.
Greensleeves was all …

4. Thy smock of silk, both fair and white,
With gold embroidered gorgeously;
Thy petticoat of sendal right,
And these I bought thee gladly.
Greensleeves was all …

5. Well I pray to God on high,
That thou my constancy mayst see,
And that yet once before I die,
Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me.
Greensleeves was all …

6. Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu,
God I pray to prosper thee,
For I am still thy lover true,
Come once again and love me.
