"GREENSLEEVES" canción tradicional inglesa, música y letra.

No puedo evitar subir este video que encontre mientras buscaba música navideña para el blog.Es una delicada y bellísima versión del la canción tradiconal Inglesa "Greensaleeves" (Mangas Verdes , en español) atribuida a Enrique VIII de inglaterra, quien supuestamente la habría escrito para su amor de aquel tiempo Ana Bolena. Lo cierto es que las fuentes discrpean en esto ya algunas sostiene que pagó para que un músico la compusiera.
Sea como fuere lo que me importa ahora es que vean lo hermosa de la interpretación. Acompaño la letra , si les interesa puedo traducirla. =)





Greensleeves

( posiblemente escrita por Enrique VIII de Inglaterra,
en al centuria del 1500)

Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have loved you well and long,
Delighting in your company.


Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.

Your vows you've broken, like my heart,
Oh, why did you so enrapture me?
Now I remain in a world apart
But my heart remains in captivity.

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.

I have been ready at your hand,
To grant whatever you would crave,
I have both wagered life and land,
Your love and good-will for to have.

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.

If you intend thus to disdain,
It does the more enrapture me,
And even so, I still remain
A lover in captivity.

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.

Ah, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu,
To God I pray to prosper thee,
For I am still thy lover true,
Come once again and love me.

Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves



Espero les haya alegrado, de alguna manera, el alma...
