Greensleeves Songtext
von Rowenda Taheny

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 my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
Greensleeves was all my joy
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

Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
Greensleeves was all my joy
Who but my Lady Greensleeves

Alas, my love, you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
For I have loved you well and long
Delighting in your company
