1. Strophe:
Alas, My Love, You Do Me Wrong,
To Cast Me Off Discourteously.
For I Have Loved You Well And 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.

2. Strophe:
Your Vows You've Broken, Like My Heart,
Oh, Why Did You So Enrapture Me?
Now I Remain In A World Apart
But My Heart Remains In Captivity.

(Refrain)

3. Strophe:
I Have Been Ready At Your Hand,
To Grant Whatever You Would Crave,
I Have Both Wagered Life And Land,
Your Love And Good-will For To Have.

(Refrain)

4. Strophe:
If You Intend Thus To Disdain,
It Does The More Enrapture Me,
And Even So, I Still Remain
A Lover In Captivity.

(Refrain)

5. Strophe:
My Men Were Clothed All In Green,
And They Did Ever Wait On Thee;
All This Was Gallant To Be Seen,
And Yet Thou Wouldst Not Love Me.

(Refrain)

6. Strophe:
Thou Couldst Desire No Earthly Thing,
But Still Thou Hadst It Readily.
Thy Music Still To Play And Sing;
And Yet Thou Wouldst Not Love Me.

(Refrain)

7. Strophe:
Well, I Will Pray To God On High,
That Thou My Constancy Mayst See,
And That Yet Once Before I Die,
Thou Wilt Vouchsafe To Love Me.

(Refrain)

8. Strophe:
Ah, Greensleeves, Now Farewell, Adieu,
To God I Pray To Prosper Thee,
For I Am Still Thy Lover True,
Come Once Again And Love Me.

(Refrain)
