Be my love 01:58
Live with me and be my love And we all the pleasures prove And if this pleasures me thee move Then live with me and be my love I will make thee a bed of roses With a thousand fragrant poses A cap of flowers and the curtle Embroidered all with leaves of myrtle A belt of straw and ivy buds With coral clasps and amber studs With grey feather of the dove Oh, live with me and be my love

It was a lover and his lass With a hey, and a ho, and a hey no-ni no, That over the green corn fields did pass With a hey, and a ho, and a hey In the spring time, the only pretty ring time When birds do sing hey ding-a-ding-a-ding Sweet lovers love the spring With a hey, and a ho, and a hey no-ni no Between the acres of the rye With a hey, and a ho, and a hey noni no, This pretty country folks would lie With a hey, and a ho, and a hey In the spring time, the only pretty ring time When birds do sing hey ding-a-ding-a-ding Sweet lovers love the spring With a hey, and a ho, and a hey no-ni no - x4
3.
Seals of love, but sealed in vain Take, O take, o take those lips away, That so sweetly were forsworn; And those eyes, the break of day, Lights that do, that do mislead the morn: But my kisses bring again, Seals of love, but sealed in vain Seals of love, but sealed in vain
4.
Come our lovely lady nigh; So, good night, with lullaby. Philomel, with melody Sing in our sweet lulla-lullaby Lulla, lulla, lulla, lullaby, lulla, lulla, lulla, lullaby lulla, lulla-la, Never harm Nor spell nor charm Weaving spiders, come not here Thorny hedgehogs, be not seen Beetles black, approach not near Come not near our precious fairy queen. Lulla, lulla, lulla, lullaby, lulla, lulla, lulla, lullaby lulla, lulla-la, Never harm Nor spell nor charm
5.
Where the bee sucks there suck I; In a cowslip's bell I lie; There I couch when owls do cry. On the bat's back I do fly After summer merrily, merrily, shall I live now Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
6.
Full fathom five thy father lies; Of his bones are coral made; Those are pearls that were his eyes: Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange. Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell Now I hear them,--Ding-dong, bell...

Honour, riches, marriage, blessing, Long continuance and increasing, Hourly joys, be still upon you Juno sings her blessings on you. Earth's increase, and foison plenty, Barns and garners never empty, Scarcity and want shall shun you; Ceres' blessing so is on you. Spring come to you at the farthest In the very end of harvest! Woe and worries be unknown to you Iris sings her blessings on you Every day the sun shall shine you, Heaven bless the love that binds you.
8.
Under the greenwood tree Who loves to lie with me, And turn his merry note Unto the sweet bird's throat, Come hither, come hither, come hither! Here shall he see No enemy But winter and rough weather. Who does ambition shun, And likes to live in the sun, Seeking the food he eats, And pleased with what he gets, Come hither, come hither, come hither! Here shall he see No enemy But winter and rough weather.

Sing, willow 02:08
The poor soul sat sighing by a sycamore tree, Sing willow, willow, willow, Her hand on her bosom, her head on her knee, Sing willow, willow, willow. The fresh streams ran by her, and murmured her moans. Sing willow, willow, willow. Her salt tears fell from her, and softened the stones. Sing willow, willow, willow. I called my love false love and what said he then Sing willow, willow, willow. If I court more women, you couch with more men, Sing willow, willow, willow.
10.
The master, the swabber, the boatswain and I, The gunner and his mate Loved Mall, Meg and Marian and Margery, But none of us cared for Kate; For she had a tongue with a tang, Would cry to a sailor, Go hang! She loved not the savour of tar nor of pitch, Yet a tailor might scratch her where'er she did itch: Then to sea, boys, and let her go hang!
11.
Awake!.. 00:59
While you here do snoring lie, Open-eyed conspiracy His time doth take. If of life you keep a care, Shake off slumber, and beware. Awake, awake!
12.
The lark at heaven's gate does sing And sleeping Mary-buds begin To open their golden eyes If in your sleep you living miss - With everything that pretty is, My lady fair and sweet, arise, Arise arise
