1. Là Dm con ai đây trên C tay mẹ hiền
Dưới Bb ánh sao đêm say A7 giấc nồng
Lời Dm ru êm ái đến trên C nôi thiên thần
Bên Bb những mục A7 đồng cùng nhau Dm suy tư.
Am Chính F Chúa ngôi C hai nhân Am lành
Xin Dm xuống bê Bb lem đêm A7 giá lạnh
Am Hãy F hãy mau C dâng lên Am Người
Chăn Bb ấm sưởi A7 lòng Người trong Dm đêm đông.
2. Là Dm vua trên hết những muôn C vua
Nhưng vì thương Bb chúng ta nên xin A7 xuống nơi này
Một Dm đêm thanh vắng Chúa sinh C trong cơ hàn
Trên Bb đống rơm A7 khô vào một Dm đêm đông.
Am Cất tiếng F hát đi C muôn Am người
Ơn Dm Chúa bao Bb la vang A7 khắp trời
Am Sẽ hiến F máu xương C thân Am người
Cho Bb khắp nơi A7 nơi được yên Dm vui.
——————–
Dm Alas, my love, you C do me wrong
To Bb cast me off dis-A7courteously
For Dm I have loved you C well and long
De-Bblighting in A7 your Dm company.
Chorus:
Am Green-Fsleeves was C all my Am joy
Dm Greensleeves was Bb all my A7 delight
Am Green-Fsleeves was all my C heart of Am gold
And Bb who but my A7 lady Dm greensleeves.
Your Dm vows you’ve broken, C like my heart,
Oh, Bb why did you so A7 enrapture me?
Now I Dm remain in a C world apart,
But Bb my heart A7 remains in Dm captivity.
Chorus:
Am Green-Fsleeves was C all my Am joy
Dm Greensleeves was Bb all my A7 delight
Am Green-Fsleeves was all my C heart of Am gold
And Bb who but my A7 lady Dm greensleeves.
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.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves?
If you intend thus to disdain,
It does the more enrapture me,
And even so, I still remain
A lover in captivity.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves?
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.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves?
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.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves?
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.
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?
