        Lyrics    
    But Black is the colour of my true love's hair.
    His face is like some rosy fair, 
    The prettiest face and the neatest hands, 
    I love the ground whereon he stands. 
    
    I love my love and well he knows 
    I love the ground whereon he goes 
    If you no more on earth I see, 
    I can't serve you as you have me. 
    
    The winter's passed and the leaves are green 
    The time is passed that we have seen, 
    But still I hope the time will come 
    When you and I shall be as one. 
    
    I go to the Clyde for to mourn and weep, 
    But satisfied I never could sleep, 
    I'll write to you a few short lines 
    I'll suffer death ten thousand times. 
    
    So fare you well, my own true love 
    The time has passed, but I wish you well. 
    But still I hope the time will come 
    When you and I will be as one. 
    
    I love my love and well he knows 
    I love the ground whereon he goes, 
    The prettiest face, the neatest hands 
    I love the ground whereon he stands.
