Sarcasm. The nymph essentially "blows off" the shepherd's evocation that her love can be won with material items. She essentially says, "If youth could last forever and we were indeed living in an Eden-type setting, maybe I would come with you and be your love. But since it is not, no."

Why did Sir Walter Raleigh write 'The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd'?
I am doing a thesis on Elizabethan Poets and their work on the Brevity of Life. Therefore I have studied Sir Walter Raleigh's poem, and Christopher Marlowe's poem 'The Passionate Shepherd to his Love' I do not know what you have been told about the poem, but this is what I think you need to know. SWR's poem is a reply, literally a reply, to another poem written at the same time by Christopher Marlowe called 'The Passionate Shepherd to his Love' I seriously suggest you read it if you haven't, it makes SWR's poem make alot more sense. SWR was a satyrist, and so he was looking for romantic poems to mock, and having read CM's poem, I think anyone would agree it was an easy target. So really he was simply fulfilling an obligation as a satyrist, and was also furthering his own reputation because the poem was so popular. That is how simple it is really, I cannot see any other reason, he just wanted/had to mock romantic poems and this one CM's poem came along. The only other things to note are that the poem focuses on the brevity of life (as I mentioned earlier) which means it is saying how short life is and how we should live for the moment (also referred to as Carpe Diem)
