¶Lyrics / Text

When shall my sorrowful sighing slake, When shall my woeful wailing cease, When shall my tears and mourning make Mercy and pity me to release? When shall the pensive heart find peace, When shall the mind find quiet rest, That hath been long with thought oppressed? How long shall I in woe lament, How long shall I in care complain, How long shall danger me torment, Augmenting still my deadly pain? Till hope and dread between them twain Agree that hope have her request, Till then live I with thought oppressed.
