11But black is the colour of my true love’s hair,Black, black is the color of my true love's hair,
22His face is like some rosy fair;Her lips are something rosy fair,
33The prettiest face and the neatest hands,The pertest face and the daintiest hands
44I love the ground whereon he stands.I love the grass whereon she stands.
55
66I love my love and well he knows,I love my love and well she knows,
77I love the ground whereon he goes.I love the grass whereon she goes;
88If you on earth no more I see,If she on earth no more I see,
99I can’t serve you as you have me.My life will quickly leave me.

1111The winter’s passed and the leaves are green,I go to Troublesome to mourne, to weep,
1212The time is passed that we have seen,But satisfied I ne'er can sleep;
1313But still I hope the time will comeI'll write her a note in a few little lines,
1414When you and I shall be as one.I'll suffer death ten thousand times.
1515
1616I’ll go to the Clyde to mourn and weep,Black, black is the color of my true love's hair,
1717But satisfied I never could sleep.Her lips are sometimes rosy fair,
1818I’ll write to you in a few short lines,The pertest face and the daintiest hands
1919I’ll suffer death ten thousand times.I love the grass whereon she stands.
20
21So fare you well, my own true love,
22The time has passed, but I wish you well;
23But still I hope the time will come
24When you and I will be as one.
25
26I love my love and well he knows,
27I love the ground whereon he goes.
28The prettiest face and the neatest hands,
29I love the ground whereon he stands.
