Greensleeves (generic entry for traditional and unknown arrangements)

~ Song

Annotation

From Wikipedia:
A broadside ballad by the name "A Newe Northen Dittye of ye Ladye Greene Sleves" was registered by Richard Jones at the London Stationer's Company in September 1580.

It might be a good idea not to add artist-work relationship "arranger", "writer" or "publisher" at all for this instance.
