作曲 : C.P./Hoyer
Come away, come away death
And in sad cypress let me be laid
Fly away, fly away breath
I am slain by a fair cruel maid
My shroud of white, stuck all with yew
Prepare it
My part of death, no one so true
Did share it
Not a flower, not a flower sweet
On my black coffin let there be strown
My part of death
Come away, come away death
And in sad cypress let me be laid
Fly away, fly away breath
I am slain by a fair cruel maid
My shroud of white, stuck all with yew
O prepare it
My part of death, no one so true
Did share it
Not a flower, not a flower sweet
On my black coffin let there be strown
Not a friend, not a friend greet
My corpse where my bones shall be thrown
A thousand, thousand sighs to save
Lay me, O, where
Sad true lover never finds my grave
To weep there
To weep there
My black coffin
My black coffin
My corpse, my bones
My coffin, my grave
My coffin (my coffin)
Black coffin (black coffin)
My poor corpse (never finds my grave)
My corpse, my bones
My coffin, my grave
My poor corpse (my poor corpse)
Never finds my grave
