11Black, black is the color of my true love's hair,But black is the colour of my true love’s hair,
22Her lips are something rosy fair,His face is like some rosy fair;
33The pertest face and the daintiest handsThe prettiest face and the neatest hands,
44I love the grass whereon she stands.I love the ground whereon he stands.
55
66I love my love and well she knows,I love my love and well he knows,
77I love the grass whereon she goes;I love the ground whereon he goes.
88If she on earth no more I see,If you on earth no more I see,
99My life will quickly leave me.I can’t serve you as you have me.
1010
1111I go to Troublesome to mourne, to weep,The winter’s passed and the leaves are green,
1212But satisfied I ne'er can sleep;The time is passed that we have seen,
1313I'll write her a note in a few little lines,But still I hope the time will come
1414I'll suffer death ten thousand times.When you and I shall be as one.
1515
1616Black, black is the color of my true love's hair,I’ll go to the Clyde to mourn and weep,
1717Her lips are sometimes rosy fair,But satisfied I never could sleep.
1818The pertest face and the daintiest handsI’ll write to you in a few short lines,
1919I love the grass whereon she stands.I’ll suffer death ten thousand times.

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.
