"Greensleeves" -- for First Grade

Hi First Graders. Here is a recording of "Greensleeves" the way we will do it for the Renaissance Faire. I'm putting this up so you can practice the words to the song in class or at home. Here are the words as we will perform them:

Greensleeves (attributed to Henry VIII)

Alas, my love, you do me wrong,

To cast me off discourteously.

For I have loved you well and 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?

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.



Greensleeves was all my joy

Greensleeves was my delight,

Greensleeves was my heart of gold,

And who but my lady Greensleeves?
