lyrics

Black is the colour of my true love's hair.
His lips are like some roses fair
The sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
And I love the ground whereon he stands.

I love my love and well he knows
I love the ground whereon he goes
I wish the day, it soon would come
When he and I could be as one.

The winter has passed and the leaves are green
The time has passed that we have seen,
I'll write you a letter just a few short lines
And suffer death a thousand times.

So fare you well, my own true love
The time has passed, I wish you well.
Still I hope the day will come
When you and I will be as one.

Black is the colour of my true love's hair.
His lips are like some roses fair
The sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
And I love the ground whereon he stands.
