Verse 2:
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. (Chorus)
Verse 3:
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. (Chorus)
Verse 4:
If you intend thus to disdain, it does the more enrapture me,
And even so, I still remain a lover in captivity. (Chorus)
Verse 5:
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. (Chorus)
Verse 6:
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. (Chorus)
Verse 7:
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. (Chorus)
Verse 8:
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. (Chorus)
