Lyrics

Black is the color of my true love's hair

His face is something wondrous fair

The kindest eyes and the strongest hands

I love the ground on where he stands

I love my love and well he knows

I love the grass whereon he goes

If he on Earth no more I see

My life will quickly leave me

Black is the color of my true love's hair
