Текст песни Gregorian - Greensleeves-Баллада, посвященная Генрихом VIII Анне Болейн

Увы, любовь, мне жизнь губя,
Ты рвешь со мною без стыда.
Я столько лет любил тебя
И счастлив с тобой был всегда.
Припев :
Гринсливс мне свет зажгла,
Гринсливс радость принесла,
Гринсливс в сердце расцвела,
А кто вместо леди Гринсливс?
Тебе я преданно служил
И потакать готов был вновь.
Я жизнь и землю положил
За милость твою и любовь.
Припев
Не счесть подаренных платков,
Где так узор изящно лег.
Я дал тебе и стол и кров,
И мой не скудел кошелек.
Припев
Гринсливс, навек прости.
Бога за тебя молю.
Но если вновь решишь прийти,
Знай, что тебя я люблю.

Greensleeves
Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have loved you well and long,
Delighting in your company.
Chorus:
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.
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
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
If you intend thus to disdain,
It does the more enrapture me,
And even so, I still remain
A lover in captivity.
Chorus
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
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
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
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.

Alas, love, ruining my life,
You're tearing to me without shame.
I've loved you for so many years
And was happy with you always.
Chorus:
Grinslivs me light lit,
Grinslivs brought joy,
Grinslivs blossomed in the heart,
A lady who instead Grinslivs?
I served you faithfully
And he was ready to indulge again.
I put the life and earth
For Thy mercy and love.
Chorus
Countless are donated shawls
Where pattern so gracefully lay down.
I gave you, and room and board,
And I do not skudel purse.
Chorus
Grinslivs, ever forgive me.
God I pray for you.
But if you decide to come back,
Know that I love you.
