Alas my love you do me wrong

To cast me off discourteously

And I have loved you oh so long

Delighting in your company

Greensleeves was all my joy

Greensleeves was my delight

Greensleeves was my heart of gold

And who but my ladie greensleeves

I have been readie at your hand

To grant what ever you would crave

I have both waged life and land

Your love and good will for to have

Greensleeves was all my joy

Greensleeves was my delight

Greensleeves was my heart of gold

And who but my ladie greensleeves

Well I will pray to God on high

That thou my constancy may see

And that yet once before I die

Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me

Greensleeves was all my joy

Greensleeves was my delight

Greensleeves was my heart of gold

And who but my ladie greensleeves
