Come away, come away, death
And in sad cyprus let me be laid
Fie
away, fie away, breath
I am slain by a fair cruel maid
My shroud of white stuck all with
you
O prepare it
My part of death no one so true
Did share it
Come away, come
away, death
Not a flower, not a flower, sweet
On my black coffin let
there be strewn
Not a friend, not a friend, greet
My poor corpse where my bones shall be
thrown
A thousand thousand sighs to say
Lay me over
Sad true lover never find my
grave
To weep there
Come away, come away, death | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
