Greensleeves covered by Tuatha De Danann, an italian Celtic Folk band.

WARNING: this is a cover recorded by an italian folk group called Tuatha de Danan and, so, I'm not talking about the brazilian band. I've already erased thousand of posts that persisted in saying that it was the brazilian band's cover. I'm sorry but it is not. More comments concerning this matter will be immediately cancelled.

Lyrics:

Alas my love you do me wrong

To cast me off discourteously;

And I have loved you oh so long

Delighting in your company.

Greensleeves was my delight,

Greensleeves my heart of gold

Greensleeves was my heart of joy

And who but my lady Greensleeves.

I have been ready at your hand

To grant whatever thou would'st crave;

I have waged both life and land

Your love and goodwill for to have.

Greensleeves was my delight,

Greensleeves my heart of gold

Greensleeves was my heart of joy

And who but my lady Greensleeves.

Thy petticoat of sendle white

With gold embroidered gorgeously;

Thy petticoat of silk and white

And these I bought gladly.

Greensleeves was my delight,

Greensleeves my heart of gold

Greensleeves was my heart of joy

And who but my lady Greensleeves.

There is a persistent belief that Greensleeves was composed by Henry VIII for his lover and future queen consort Anne Boleyn. Boleyn allegedly rejected King Henry's attempts to seduce her, and this rejection may be referred to in the song when the writer's love "cast me off discourteously". However, the piece is based on an Italian style of composition that did not reach England until after Henry's death, making it more likely to be Elizabethan in origin.

Tuatha de dannan are God like creatures out of irish celtic mythology that defeated "the dark ones". Not entirely sure this contributes to this particular video at all. The melody to Greensleeves dates back to England sometime in the middle ages, though the words were added much later.

What the fuck is a band called Tuatha de Danann doing singing a hun sing? That's a pic of the spring and fire goddess, Brigit too. Wtf again and the final wtf is that this song is said to have been written by Henry VIII, a fucking hun king, for Anne Boleyn plus under that fat stinking pos was the time of Cromwell that slob bitch. This is a direct insult to my ppl. Either get your shit straight or don't fuck with my ppl, our history and our religion. Dumbasses. Fuck off.

Green Sleeves is thought to have been written by Henry VIII, for Ann Boleyn after her death because he was still in love her. the music is in his style, he wrote a few pieces.
