Lyrics for Oh Mistress Mine by Unknown:
| | | Artist: | Unknown |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Oh Mistress Mine | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 186 | | | | Lyrics: | OH MISTRESS MINE
O mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O stay and here your true
love's coming
That can sing both high and low.
Trip no further, pretty
sweeting,
Journeys end in lovers' meeting
Ev'ry wise man's son doth
know.
What is love? 'tis not hereafter
Present mirth hath present
laughter,
What's to come is still unsure.
In delay there lies no plenty
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty
Youth's a stuff will not endure.
Note: Sung
in Shakespeare's Twelth Night, Act II, Scene 3
Two tunes given here. OMSTRSS1 was
arranged by William
Byrd for Queen Elizabeth's Virginal Book, 1611. For this
tune, first line of each verse repeats. OMSTRSS2 I heard
from Alan Shulman in 1950.
