-Under the greenwood tree <br>
-Who loves to lie with me, <br>
-And turn his merry note <br>
-Unto the sweet bird's throat, <br>
-Come hither, come hither, come hither: <br>
-Here shall we see <br>
-No enemy <br>
-But winter and rough weather.
-Who doth ambition shun, <br>
-And loves to live i' the sun, <br>
-Seeking the food he eats, <br>
-And pleas'd with what he gets, <br>
-Come hither, come hither, come hither: <br>
-Here shall he see <br>
-No enemy <br>
-But winter and rough weather.
