Dainty fine sweet Nymph delightful,
while the Sea aloft is mounting,
Sit we here our loves recounting.
Fa la la la la la la. Dainty la.
With sugared gloses,
Among these Roses.
Fa la la la la la.

Why alas are you so spiteful,
dainty Nymph but O too cruel.
Wilt thou kill thy dearest jewel?
Fa la la la la la la. Why ala.
Kill then and bliss me,
But first come kiss me.
