Alas my love, ye do me wrong
to cast me off discurteously:
And I have loved you so long,
Delighting in your companie

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight:
Greensleees was my heart of gold,
And who but my Ladie Greensleeves

I have been readie at your hand,
to grant what ever you would crave
I have both waged life and land,
your love and good will for to have

Refrain:
Greensleeves was all my joy, etc

Thou couldst desire no earthly thing,
But still thou hadst it readily,
Thy musicke still to play and sing,
And yet thou wuldst not love me

Refrain:

Greensleeves was all my joy, etc

Greensleeves now farewel adieu
God I pray to prosper thee,
For I am still thy lover true
Come once again and love me

Refrain:

Greensleeves was all my joy, etc
