humor say what makst thou here - john dowland lyrics
1st voice:
humour, say what mak’st thou here
in the presence of a queen?
2nd voice:
princes hold conceit most dear
all conceit in humour seen
1st voice:
thou art a heavy laden mood
2nd voice:
humour is invention’s food
chorus:
but never humour yet was true
but that which only pleaseth you
1st voice:
o i am as heavy as earth
say then, who is humour now?
2nd voice:
i am now inclined to mirth
humour i as well as thou
1st voice:
why then ’tis i am drowned in woe
2nd voice:
no, no. wit is cherished so
chorus:
but never humour yet was true
but that which only pleaseth you
1st voice:
mirth then is drowned in sorrow’s brim
o in sorrow all things sleep
2nd voice:
no, no, fool, the light’st things swim
heavy things sink to the deep
1st voice:
in her presence all things smile
2nd voice:
humour frolic then awhile
chorus:
but never humour yet was true
but that which only pleaseth you
