¶Liedtext

I had a love passing fair was she, As it were the whole world’s jewel, White as a dove, Say, how could it be, She could have a heart so cruel? Suing her, wooing her, Still with sighs pursuing her All I might gain for guerdon A word unkind, A doleful mind And a frown, And a song with a heavy burden, Down a-down, And a-down, a-down, a-down, a-down, a-down, Hey, down a-down a’. I had a love passing fair was she, Yet her heart set nothing by me; Shall I not prove, If some maid there be, Who will never thus deny me? Suing her, wooing her, Still with sighs pursuing her She will give more for guerdon Than a word unkind, A doleful mind And a frown, And a song with a heavy burden, Down a-down, And a-down, a-down, a-down, a-down, a-down, Hey, down a-down a’.
