Esther Ofarim - Black Is The Colour Of My True Love's Hair lyrics

Black is the colour of my true love's hair

His face is soft and one rose fair

the purest eyes and the strongest hands

I love the ground whereon he stands

I love my love, and well he knows

I love the ground whereon he goes

the sweetest face and the strongest hands

I love the ground whereon he stands

My own true love so fare you well

the time has passed I wish you well

still I hope the time will come

When you and I shall be as one.

Black is the colour of my true love's hair
