I had a dream of this song when I was 3. There was a princess walking up the stairs in a castle singing this song, it was truly magical ❤

My great-grandmother used to sing this song for me and my brother when i was very young. Now i am 16 years old, and i always cry when i play this song with my shamisen. Rest in peace, sweet Elizabeth.

So many are in awe of the beauty of this song that it is neglected that this is a song of pain also. He loved her and gave her all he could and still he lost her and she would never love him.

So imo there should be some element of pain in the singing and this is not only a comforting song...its a song about love and loss...and this version has those elements of beauty and pain imo ... beautifully done

Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
And i have loved you so long,
Delighting in your company.

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.


Thy smock of silk, both fair and white,
With gold embroidered gorgeously;
Thy petticoat of sendal right,
And these I bought thee gladly.

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.

I bought thee kerchiefs for thy head,
That were wrought fine and gallantly;
I kept thee at both board and bed,
Which cost my purse well-favoredly.

I have been ready at your hand,
To grant whatever you would crave,
I have wagered both life and land,
Your love and good-will for to have.

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.

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.

this song makes me feel like my soul has been awakened from a long, deep sleep. Never do I want to sleep again, but when I feel the burden of needing rest I will just relax to this masterpiece.

[iAmIsreal]

To think that this song was composed over 500 years ago, fills me with a sense of awe.
