Alas, my love, you do me wrong, to cast me off discourteously
And 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
If you intend to be this way, it does the more enrapture me
And even so, I still remain a lover in captivity
Chorus
Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu, God I pray he will prosper thee
For I am still thy lover true, come once again and love me
Chorus
