What shall I your true love tell | B |
Earth forsaking maid | C |
What shall I your true love tell | B |
When life's spectre's laid | C |
Tell him that our side the grave | D |
Maid may not believe | E |
Life should be so sad to have | F |
That's so sad to leave | E |
What shall I your true love tell | B |
When I come to him | G |
What shall I your true love tell | B |
Eyes growing dim | G |
Tell him this when you shall part | H |
From a maiden pined | I |
That I see him with my heart | H |
Now my eyes are blind | I |
What shall I your true love tell | B |
Speaking while is scant | J |
What shall I your true love tell | B |
Death's white postulant | J |
Tell him love with speech at strife | K |
For last utterance saith | L |
I who loved with all my life | K |
Loved with all my death ' | - |
