Fairest of men to see
Robin, my dear
Dearest of men to me
Robin, my dear
Son of the Mother’s ways
True-hearted all his days
Ah, I shall love always
Robin, my dear

Youth must in time decay
Robin, my dear
Beauty must fade away
Robin, my dear
Castles are sacked in war
Gold may be scattered far
Love is a fixed star
Robin, my dear

Alas, thou’rt cold to me
Robin, my dear
And I no more shall see
Robin, my dear
Yet he I loved so well
Still in my heart shall dwell
Ah, how I love him still!
Robin, my dear!
