For with an heavy heart Must I from thee depart, To follow plow and cart All the year after. 2. Lent is fast coming on, Well-a-day! well-a-day! That loves not anyone, More is the pity! For I doubt both my cheeks Will look thin from eating leeks; Wise is he then that seeks For a friend in a corner. 3. And our good cheer is gone, Well-a-day! well-a-day! And turned to a bone, More is the pity! In my good master's house I shall eat no more souse,1 Then give me one carouse, Gentle kind butler! 4. It grieves me to the heart, Well-a-day! well-a-day! From my friend to depart, More is the pity! Christmas, I fear 'tis thee That thus forsaketh me: Yet till one hour I see, Will I be merry.
