  • Here is a poem by Shakespeare (from As You Like It) which I have set to music:
    Song: “Blow, blow, thou winter wind”
    By William Shakespeare
    Em C Em
    Blow, blow, thou winter wind,
    D Am Em
    Thou art not so unkind
    Am G As man’s ingratitude;
    F Am
    Thy tooth is not so keen,
    Dm C E7
    Because thou art not seen,
    Am E7 Am
    Although thy breath be rude.
    D Am D Am
    Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
    G Em C G
    Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:
    C G Am
    Then, heigh-ho, the holly!
    G D G
    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 friend remembered not.
    Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
    Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:
    Then, heigh-ho, the holly!
    This life is most jolly.
