Greensleeves - unknown female singer

Greensleeves可能是世界上比較古老的愛情歌曲之一了。最近在補看的電視劇The Tudors裏描寫了亨利八世為了Anne Boleyn寫了這首優美動聽的歌曲。不過根據Wiki(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greensleeves),這隻是個傳說罷了。這首歌並不是亨利八世創作的。

"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, Henry did not compose "Greensleeves", which is probably Elizabethan in origin and is based on an Italian style of composition that did not reach England until after his death."

這首歌被很多人演唱過。我喜歡的是一個女歌手唱的這個版本:


這個版本的歌詞比其他較為傳統的版本來說,歌詞簡化了很多。很可惜我不知道這個歌手是誰。
