绿袖子是一首英国民谣，在伊丽莎白女王时代就已经广为流传，相传是英王亨利八世所作，他是位长笛演奏家。
这首民谣的旋律非常古典、优雅，略带一丝凄美之感，是一首描写对爱情感到忧伤的歌曲，但它受到世人喜爱的层面却不仅仅局限在爱情的领域，有人将它换了歌词演唱、也有人将它作为圣诞歌曲，而它被改编为器乐演奏的版本也是多不胜数。
Alas my love, you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
For I have loved you all so long
Delighting in your company
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my Lady Greensleeves
I have been ready at your hand
To grant whatever you would crave
I have both waged life and land
Your love and good will for to have
Thou couldst desire no earthly thing
But still thou hadst it readily
Thy music still to play and sing
And yet thou wouldst not love me
Greensleeves now farewell adieu
God I pray to prosper thee
For I am still thy lover true
Come once again and love me
