1st Voice:
Humour, say what mak'st thou here
In the presence of a queen?
2nd Voice:
Princes hold conceit most dear
All conceit in humour seen
1st Voice:
Thou art a heavy laden mood
2nd Voice:
Humour is Invention's food
Chorus:
But never humour yet was true
But that which only pleaseth you
1st Voice:
O I am as heavy as earth
Say then, who is Humour now?
2nd Voice:
I am now inclined to mirth
Humour I as well as thou
1st Voice:
Why then 'tis I am drowned in woe
2nd Voice:
No, no. Wit is cherished so
Chorus:
But never humour yet was true
But that which only pleaseth you
1st Voice:
Mirth then is drowned in sorrow's brim
O in sorrow all things sleep
2nd Voice:
No, no, fool, the light'st things swim
Heavy things sink to the deep
1st Voice:
In her presence all things smile
2nd Voice:
Humour frolic then awhile
Chorus:
But never humour yet was true
But that which only pleaseth you
Humor say what makst thou here was written by John Dowland.
