Full Lyrics
Blow, blow, thou winter wind.
Thou art not so unkind
As man's ingratitude;
Thy tooth is not so keen,
Because thou art not seen,
Although thy breath be rude.
Heighho! sing, heighho!
unto the green holly:
Most friendship is feigning,
most loving meere folly:
Then, heighho, the holly!
This Life is most jolly.
Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky,
That dost not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As friends remember'd not.
Heighho! sing, (etc.)
