This blog is partly devoted to the sharing of my learning of the English language (my well mastered mother tongue is Chinese and I am not an English teacher) and its *cultures*, partly to the current significant trends in Canada and in the world, and partly to my own random thoughts and little life. I am not religious, but I am somewhat interested in Christianity and Buddhism, among other personal interests. Welcome. And, have a good day.

Music videos - Greensleeves - The Brothers Four
"Greensleeves" is a traditional English folk song which appeared in the late 16th century.
Lyrics:
Alas, my love, you do me wrong,By the way, what a deeply sad and gentle irony it is "Greensleeves, my heart of gold".
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have courted you so long,
Delighting in your company.
Greensleeves was all my joy,
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves, my heart of gold,
And who but my lady Greensleeves.
So, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu,
May good fortune prosper thee,
For I am still thy lover true,
Oh, come once again and love me.
