Your eyes, my love, are green,
Green as a troubled sea:
Oh may there be no storms, my love,
To shipwreck you and me.
Your eyes, my love, are green,
Green as the evening sky:
May we escape the dark that swallows
Brightness, you and I.
Your eyes, my love, are green,
Green as the leaves on the tree:
But may no winter wither the growing
Love between you and me.
Your eyes, my love, are green,
Green as the yaffles that fly
And laugh in the woods: may we laugh so
For ever, you and I.
