Whereto should I express
Whereto should I express
My inward heaviness?
No mirth can make me fain
Till that we meet again.
Do ‘way, dear heart, not so!
Let no thought you dismay ;
Though ye now part me fro,
We shall meet when we may.
When I remember me
Of your most gentil mind,
It may in no wise agree
That I should be unkind.
The daisy delectable,
The violet wan and blo-
Ye are not variable,
I love you and no mo.
I make you fast and sure ;
It is to me great pain
Thus longë to endure
Till that we meet again.
