Ah, little green eyes, + 

Ah, little eyes of mine, + 

Ah, Heaven be willing + 

That you think of me somewise. + 

The day of departure + 

You came full of grieving + 

And to see I was leaving + 

The tears ’gan to start sure + 

With the heavy torture + 

Of sorrows unbrightened + 

When you lie down at night and + 

When there to you dreams rise, + 

Ah, Heaven be willing + 

That you think of me somewise. + 

Deep is my assurance + 

Of you, little green eyes, + 

That in truth you realise + 

Something of my durance + 

Eyes of hope’s fair assurance + 

And good premonition + 

By virtue of whose condition + 

All green colours I prize. + 

Ah, Heaven be willing + 

That you think of me somewise. + 

Would God I might know you + 

To which quarter bended + 

And why comprehended + 

When sighings overflow you, + 

And if you must go through + 

Some certain despair, + 

For that you lose his care + 

Who was faithful always. + 

Ah, Heaven be willing + 

That you think of me these days. + 

Through never a moment + 

I’ve known how to live lest + 

All my thoughts but as one pressed + 

You-ward for their concernment. + 

May God send chastisement + 

If in this I belie me + 

And if it truth be + 

My own little green eyes. + 

Ah, Heaven be willing + 

That you think of me somewise. + 
