Alas, my love, ye do me wrong,

To cast me off discurteously.

And I have loved you so long,

Delighting in your company.

唉呀，親愛的。你不該如此對我，

無情的把我拋棄：

我愛你愛了那么久，

在你身邊快樂無比。

Greensleeves was all my joy,

Greensleeves was my delight:

Greensleeves was my heart of gold,

And who but lady greensleeves.

綠袖是我一切快樂，

綠袖就是我的喜悅：

綠袖就是我心中的至愛，

除了綠袖姑娘我誰也不愛。

I have been ready at your hand,

To grant whatever your would crave.

I have both waged life and land,

Your love and good will for to have.

縱然痛苦我也愿意承受，

心甘情愿為你付出一切。

我以工作維生，有田有地，

期冀蒙受你的愛情與青睞。

Thy smoke of silk, both fair and white,

With gold embroidered gorgeously:

The petticoat of sendal right’

And thus I brought thee gladly.

潔白美麗的絲綢衣裳，

美幻絕倫的金線繡花：

得體的綢裙是我

歡歡喜喜買給你的禮物

Thy girdle of gold so red,

With pearls bedecked sumptuously:

The like no other lasses had,

And yet thou wouldst not love me.

紅彤彤的金束腰，

綴著名貴的珠子：

你的容貌艷壓群芳：

而你不再愛我。

Greensleeves now farewell, adieu,

God I pray to prosper thee:

For I am still thy lover true,

Come once again and love me.

別了，綠袖，再會，

我祝愿你幸福快樂：

我依然是你真摯的愛人，

來吧，再愛我一次。
