Coventry Carol
Lully, lullay, thou little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay
Thou little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay
O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day
This poor youngling for whom we do sing
"Bye bye, lully, lullay?"
Herod the king, in his raging
Chargèd he hath this day
His men of might in his own sight
All young children to slay
But woe is me, poor child, for thee
And ever mourn that day
For thy parting neither say nor sing
"Bye bye, lully, lullay."
Lully, lullay, thou little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay
Bye bye, lully, lullay
Thou little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay
O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day
This poor youngling for whom we do sing
"Bye bye, lully, lullay?"
Herod the king, in his raging
Chargèd he hath this day
His men of might in his own sight
All young children to slay
But woe is me, poor child, for thee
And ever mourn that day
For thy parting neither say nor sing
"Bye bye, lully, lullay."
Lully, lullay, thou little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay
