What saith my dainty darling, | 1. What saith my dainty darling, | ||
shall I now your love obtain | shall I now your love obtain? | ||
Fa la la. | Fa la la. | ||
Long time I sued for grace, | |||
And grace you granted me, | |||
When time should serve and place, | |||
Long time I sued for grace, | Can any fitter be? | ||
And grace you granted me, | Fa la la. | ||
When time should serve and place, | |||
Can any fitter be? | 2. This crystal running fountain | ||
Fa la la. | in his language saith, “Come love”. | ||
The birds, the trees, the fields, | Fa la la. | ||
Else none can us behold, | The birds, the trees, the fields, | ||
This bank soft lying yields, | Else none can us behold, | ||
And saith, “Nice fools, be bold!” | This bank soft lying yields, | ||
Fa la la. | And saith, “Nice fools, be bold!” | ||
Fa la la. | |||

1. What saith my dainty darling,
shall I now your love obtain?
Fa la la.
Long time I sued for grace,
And grace you granted me,
When time should serve and place,
Can any fitter be?
Fa la la.
2. This crystal running fountain
in his language saith, “Come love”.
Fa la la.
The birds, the trees, the fields,
Else none can us behold,
This bank soft lying yields,
And saith, “Nice fools, be bold!”
Fa la la.
