Lyrics

Wilt thou unkind thus reave me

Wilt thou unkind thus reave me
Of my heart, of my heart, and so leave me?
Farewell: Farewell,
But yet or e'er I part (O cruel)
Kiss me sweet, sweet my jewel.

Hope by disdain grows cheerless,
For doth love, love doth fear, beauty peerless.
Farewell: Farewell,
But yet or e'er I part (O cruel)
Kiss me sweet, sweet my jewel.

If no delays can move thee,
Life shall die, death shall live still to love thee.
Farewell: Farewell,
But yet or e'er I part (O cruel)
Kiss me sweet, sweet my jewel.

Yet be thou mindful ever
Heat from fire, fire from heat none can sever.
Farewell: Farewell,
But yet or e'er I part (O cruel)
Kiss me sweet, sweet my jewel.

True love cannot be changed,
Though delight from desert be estranged.
Farewell: Farewell,
But yet or e'er I part (O cruel)
Kiss me sweet, sweet my jewel.
