Brown Bird - Coventry Carol lyrics
[Brown Bird - Coventry Carol lyrics]
Lullay, lullay, little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay
Lullay, lulllay, little baby child
Bye bye, lully, lullay
O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day?
This poor youngling for whom we 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 children young to slay
Then woe is me, poor child, for thee
And ever mourn and day
For thy parting not say nor sing
"Bye bye, lullay, lullay"
Bye bye, lully, lullay
Lullay, lulllay, little baby child
Bye bye, lully, lullay
O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day?
This poor youngling for whom we 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 children young to slay
Then woe is me, poor child, for thee
And ever mourn and day
For thy parting not say nor sing
"Bye bye, lullay, lullay"
