lyrics

[Lyrics were extracted from William Shakespeare's Hamlet.]

How should I your true love know
From another one?
By his cockle hat and staff,
And his sandal shoon.
He is dead and gone, lady
He is dead and gone, oh
At his head a grass-green turf,
At his heels a stone, oh!,
At his heels a stone.

Sing thee "down-a"; thou, "a-down-a-down"
Sing theee "down-a down, down-a down,
down-a down-a down."
(Oh what a noble mind is here overthrown!)

White his shroud as mountain snow,
Larded all with sweet flowers.
Which into the ground did go
With true-love showers, love showers.

Oh, they bore him barefaced on the bier
(hey nonny, non nonny, hey!)
And in his grave rained many a tear
(hey nonny non nonny, hey!)
Will he not come again, lady?
Will he not come again? No,
He is dead, and to thy bed he never will come again.

Will he not come again, lady?
Will he not come again? No,
He is dead, and to thy bed he never will come again.
Oh, he never will come again.
No, he will not come again.
