Greensleeves Lyrics

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 my delight, 



Greensleeves my heart of gold 



Greensleeves was my heart of joy 



And who but my lady Greensleeves. 







I have been ready at your hand 



To grant whatever thou would'st crave; 



I have waged both life and land 



Your love and goodwill for to have. 







Greensleeves was my delight, 



Greensleeves my heart of gold 



Greensleeves was my heart of joy 



And who but my lady Greensleeves. 







Thy petticoat of sendle white 



With gold embroidered gorgeously; 



Thy petticoat of silk and white 



And these I bought gladly. 







Greensleeves was my delight, 



Greensleeves my heart of gold 



Greensleeves was my heart of joy 



And who but my lady Greensleeves.
