Alas! my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have loved you, oh, so long,
Delighting in your company.

CHORUS

Greensleeves was all my joy,
And oh, Greensleeves was my delight.
Greensleeves, my heart of gold,
And all for Lady Greensleeves.
Ah, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu.
To God I pray to prosper thee,
For I am still thy sweetheart true.
Come once again to meet me.
CHORUS
