Eloré Lo
Peter Warlock
In a garden so green in a May morning
Heard I my lady pleen of paramours;
Said she: "My love so sweet, come you not yet, nor yet,
Heght you not me to meet amongst the flow'rs?
Eloré, Eloré, Eloré, Eloré,
I love my lusty love, Eloré lo!
Then to my lady blyth did I my presence kyth,
Saying: "My bird be glad! Am I not yours?
So in my armes two did I the lusty jo,
And kissed her times mo than night hath hours.
Eloré, Eloré, Eloré, Eloré,
I love my lusty love, Eloré lo!
Favour and duty unto your bright beauty
Confirmed hath law-tie, oblieged to truth,
So that your soverance, heartlie but variance,
Mark in your memorance mercy and ruth.
Eloré, Eloré, Eloré, Eloré,
I love my lusty love, Eloré lo!
