Tomorrow shall be my dancing day
I would my true love did so chance
To see the legend of my play
To call my true love to my dance

Sing, oh! my love
Oh! my love, my love, my love
This have I done for my true love

Then was I born of a virgin pure
Of her, I took fleshly substance
Thus was I knit to man's nature
To call my true love to my dance

Sing, oh! my love
Oh! my love, my love, my love
This have I done for my true love

Then afterward baptized I was
The Holy Ghost on me did glance
My Father’s voice heard I from above
To call my true love to my dance

Sing, oh! my love
Oh! my love, my love, my love
This have I done for my true love

Into the desert, I was led,
Where I fasted without substance;
The Devil bade me make stones my bread,
To have me break my true love's dance.

Sing, oh! my love
Oh! my love, my love, my love
This have I done for my true love

For thirty pence Judas me sold,
His covetousness for to advance:
Mark whom I kiss, the same do hold!
The same is he shall lead the dance.

Sing, oh! my love
Oh! my love, my love, my love
This have I done for my true love

Then on the cross hanged I was,
Where a spear my heart did glance;
There issued forth both water and blood,
To call my true love to my dance.

Sing, oh! my love
Oh! my love, my love, my love
This have I done for my true love

Then down to hell, I took my way
For my true love's deliverance,
And rose again on the third day,
Up to my true love and the dance.

Sing, oh! my love
Oh! my love, my love, my love
This have I done for my true love

Then up to heaven, I did ascend,
Where now I dwell in sure substance
On the right hand of God, that man
May come unto the general dance.

Sing, oh! my love
Oh! my love, my love, my love
This have I done for my true love
