Greensleeves Songtext
von Peter Hollens feat. Tim Foust

Alas, my love, you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
And I have loved you for 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 lady Greensleeves

I have been ready at your hand
To grant whatever thou wouldst crave
Oh, I have waged both life and land
Your love and goodwill for to have


Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my lady 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, now farewell, adieu
To God, I pray to prosper thee
For I am still thy lover true
Come once again and love me

Greensleeves was my all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my lady Greensleeves
