1.
Tình tôi tan nát
Than ôi yêu người yêu mãi
Nhưng sao mà như mất em rồi
Tình tôi say đắm đã lâu
Hỡi người yêu dấu
Đã cho được gần nhau

ĐK:
Chiếc áo ấy có đôi vai
Xanh màu xanh ân ái
Xanh như một hạnh phúc lâu dài
Hỡi hỡi chiếc áo tươi
Ai người sẽ tới
Nghe tôi kể chuyện xa xôi


2.
Người ơi không nhớ đến tôi
Tôi càng như thương nhớ
Thương yêu hình bóng cũ xa vời
Người ơi như đã thoát ly tôi
Tôi càng như trói
Thân tôi vào người mà thôi

GREENSLEEVES

Alas, my love, you did me wrong,
to cast me out discourteously,
for I have loved you so long,
delighting in your very company.
Now if you intend to show me disdain,
don't you know it all the more enraptures me,
for even so I still remain your lover in captivity.

Green sleeves, you're all alone,
the leaves have fallen, the men have gone.
Green sleeves, there's no one home,
not even the Lady Green Sleeves

I sang my songs, I told my lies,
to lie between your matchless thighs.
And ain't it fine, ain't it wild
to finally end our exercise
Then I saw you naked in the early dawn,
oh, I hoped you would be someone new.
I reached for you but you were gone,
so lady I'm going too.

Green sleeves, you're all alone ...

Green sleeves, you're all alone,
the leaves have fallen, the men have all gone home.
Green sleeves, it's so easily done,
leaving the Lady Green Sleeves.

GREENSLEEVES

Henry VIII of England wrote this song to Lady Anne Bolyn (pronounced "Bullen") as he was courting her. She had a deformed pinkie finger and always wore long sleeves to cover it. Some say she actually had a 6th finger on one hand. Since the Tudor color is green, she wore long green sleeves - hence the name. Do you have all the verses? I love the last one. After he has gone though all the things that he has done for her or given her in his attempt to win her, he sings about his despair: ..."and now I pray to God on high that thou wilt vouchsafe to love me."
She finally did agree to love him, but only after forcing him to divorce Katherine of Aragon (Spanish princess), denouncing the Pope (who would not give a dispensation for the divorce and marriage), being excommunicated, founding the Anglican Church with him as the head, and insulting Spain - leading to a war with them. When Anne could not give him a son, he had her beheaded. That is what he wanted from all his 6 wives. But, he had venereal disease, weakening his sperm so that he could not give her a male sperm. It was all HIS fault!!!
