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 my heart of gold And who but my lady Greensleeves. I have been ready at your hand To grant whatever thou would'st crave; Oh I have waged both life and land Greensleeves was my heart of joy Your love and goodwill for to have. Greensleeves was my delight, Greensleeves my heart of gold And who but my lady Greensleeves. Thy petticoat of slender white With gold embroidered gorgeously; Thy petticoat of silk and white And these I bought gladly. Greensleeves was my heart of joy Greensleeves was my delight, Greensleeves my heart of gold And who but my lady Greensleeves.
