- 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.
