| Greensleeves
| mangas verdes
|
| Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
| Ay, amor mío, me haces mal,
|
| To cast me off discourteously.
| Para desecharme descortésmente.
|
| For I have loved you well and long,
| Porque te he amado mucho y por mucho tiempo,
|
| Delighting in your company.
| Deleitarse en su compañía.
|
| Chorus:
| Coro:
|
| Greensleeves was all my joy
| Greensleeves era toda mi alegría
|
| Greensleeves was my delight,
| Greensleeves fue mi deleite,
|
| Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
| Greensleeves era mi corazón de oro,
|
| And who but my lady greensleeves.
| Y quién sino mi señora mangas verdes.
|
| Your vows you’ve broken, like my heart,
| Tus votos que has roto, como mi corazón,
|
| Oh, why did you so enrapture me?
| Oh, ¿por qué me embelesaste tanto?
|
| Now I remain in a world apart
| Ahora me quedo en un mundo aparte
|
| But my heart remains in captivity.
| Pero mi corazón permanece en cautiverio.
|
| Chorus
| Coro
|
| I have been ready at your hand,
| He estado listo de tu mano,
|
| To grant whatever you would crave,
| Para conceder lo que anhelas,
|
| I have both wagered life and land,
| He apostado la vida y la tierra,
|
| Your love and good-will for to have.
| Tu amor y buena voluntad por tener.
|
| Chorus
| Coro
|
| If you intend thus to disdain,
| Si así pretendes desdeñar,
|
| It does the more enrapture me,
| más me embelesa,
|
| And even so, I still remain
| Y aun así sigo quedándome
|
| A lover in captivity.
| Un amante en cautiverio.
|
| Chorus
| Coro
|
| My men were clothed all in green,
| Mis hombres iban vestidos todos de verde,
|
| And they did ever wait on thee;
| Y siempre esperaron en ti;
|
| All this was gallant to be seen,
| Todo esto era gallardo para ser visto,
|
| And yet thou wouldst not love me.
| Y sin embargo, no me amarías.
|
| Chorus
| Coro
|
| Thou couldst desire no earthly thing,
| No podrías desear nada terrenal,
|
| but still thou hadst it readily.
| pero aun así lo tuviste fácilmente.
|
| Thy music still to play and sing;
| tu música aún por tocar y cantar;
|
| And yet thou wouldst not love me.
| Y sin embargo, no me amarías.
|
| Chorus
| Coro
|
| Well, I will pray to God on high,
| Bueno, oraré a Dios en las alturas,
|
| that thou my constancy mayst see,
| para que veas mi constancia,
|
| And that yet once before I die,
| Y que una vez antes de morir,
|
| Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me.
| Tú te dignarás amarme.
|
| Chorus
| Coro
|
| Ah, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu,
| Ah, Greensleeves, ahora adiós, adieu,
|
| To God I pray to prosper thee,
| A Dios ruego que te prospere,
|
| For I am still thy lover true,
| porque sigo siendo tu verdadero amante,
|
| Come once again and love me. | Ven una vez más y ámame. |
