[Verse 1]
Come away
Come away, death
And in sad cypress let me be laid
Fly away
Fly away, breath
I am slain by a fair cruel maid
My shroud of white stuck all with yew
[Verse 2]
O, prepare it
Prepare it
My part of death no one so true
Did share it
Did share it
Not a flower, not a flower sweet
[Bridge]
On my black coffin let there be strewn
Not a friend, not a friend greet
My poor corpse where my bones shall be thrown
[Outro]
A thousand, thousand sighs to save
Lay me O where
Sad true lover never find my grave
To weep there
Come away
Come away, death
And in sad cypress let me be laid
Fly away
Fly away, breath
I am slain by a fair cruel maid
My shroud of white stuck all with yew
[Verse 2]
O, prepare it
Prepare it
My part of death no one so true
Did share it
Did share it
Not a flower, not a flower sweet
[Bridge]
On my black coffin let there be strewn
Not a friend, not a friend greet
My poor corpse where my bones shall be thrown
[Outro]
A thousand, thousand sighs to save
Lay me O where
Sad true lover never find my grave
To weep there
