Great countertenor Alfred Deller sings BLACK IS THE COLOR.

Enjoy it.

Black is the Colour

Black is the colour of my true love's hair.
Her face is something wond'rous fair
The clearest eyes and the dearest hands.
I love the grass whereon she stands.

I love my love and well she knows,
I love the grass whereon she goes
And still I hope the time will come
When she and I will be as one.

Black is the colour of my true love's hair.
Her face is something wond'rous fair
The clearest eyes and the dearest hands.
I love the grass whereon she stands.


Thank you very much for the original lyrics,
Alexander - Schurik72 °•.♥.•°

  • @rozalia67 It's a poem as well -- just Google the title and it will come up with text.

  • Does anybody know the text of this lovely song? Perhaps is there a CD of Alfred Deller?

  • forgot if i've already left a comment but it bears repeating:

    one of the most hauntingly beautiful songs I've ever listened to.
