Our family abodes a travelling, went to distant lands
A singing sweet with pipes and string and an open heart
Just to wish their brothers a good life

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves same heart of gold
And who but my love, Greensleeves

In Dante’s land, or there they’d marbled strong
To see this Celtic bloods sincerity
I look, you smile, even a tiny gift
And turn their backs, low courteously

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves same heart of gold
And who but my love, Greensleeves

When come to the city of a waltz, they said
There they’ll love you cautiously
But in truth they’ll be given no time
And even scares by the city of music
He’s gone or go

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves same heart of gold
And who but my love, Greensleeves

So they dances the way, no scud and faint
To Schiller’s sweet heaven and dearest walk
And at last they were watched with wandering love
And that lifted this family’s silent heart

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves same heart of gold
And who but my love, Greensleeves
