Come to the greenwood tree,
Come where the dark woods be,
Dearest, O come with me!
Let us roveO my loveO my love!
Come'tis the moonlight hour,
Dew is on leaf and flower,
Come to the linden bower,
Let us roveO my loveO my love!
Dark is the wood, and wide
Dangers, they say, betide;
But, at my Albert's side,
Nought I fear, O my loveO my love!
Welcome the greenwood tree,
Welcome the forest free,
Dearest, with thee, with thee,
Nought I fear, O my loveO my love!
