Mediaeval Baebes - Coventry Carol lyrics

rate me

Lully, lullay, thou little tiny child

By, by, lully, lullay, thou little tiny child

By, by, lully, lullay

O! Sisters too

How may we do

For to preserve this day

This pore yongling

For whom we do singe

"By, by, lully, lullay"?

Lully, lullay, thou little tiny child

By, by, lully, lullay, thou little tiny child

By, by, lully, lullay

Herod, the king

In his raging

Charged he hath this day

His men of might

In his owne sight

All yonge children to slay

Lully, lullay, thou little tiny child

By, by, lully, lullay, thou little tiny child

By, by, lully, lullay

That wo is me

Pore child for thee

And ever morne and may

For thy parting

Nether say nor sing

"By, by, lully, lullay"

Lully, lullay, thou little tiny child

By, by, lully, lullay, thou little tiny child

By, by, lully, lullay
