Greensleeves
Lyrics by King Henry VIII.
Music arrang by Marijan

I.
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
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
and who but my lady greensleeves

II.
Your vows you've broken, like my heart
O, why did you so enrapture me?
Now I remain in a world apart
But my heart is still in captivity

Chorus
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
and who but my lady greensleeves

III.
I have been ready at your hand
To grant whatever thou would`st grave
I have waged both life and land
Your love and goodwill for to have

Chorus
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
and who but my lady greensleeves

IV.
Well I will pray to God on high
that you may see my constancy
For I am still thy lover true
Come once again and love me

Chorus
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
and who but my lady greensleeves
