What shall I your true love tellB
Earth forsaking maidC
What shall I your true love tellB
When life's spectre's laidC
Tell him that our side the graveD
Maid may not believeE
Life should be so sad to haveF
That's so sad to leaveE
What shall I your true love tellB
When I come to himG
What shall I your true love tellB
Eyes growing dimG
Tell him this when you shall partH
From a maiden pinedI
That I see him with my heartH
Now my eyes are blindI
What shall I your true love tellB
Speaking while is scantJ
What shall I your true love tellB
Death's white postulantJ
Tell him love with speech at strifeK
For last utterance saithL
I who loved with all my lifeK
Loved with all my death '-
