Joan Baez - Coventry Carol lyrics
[Joan Baez - Coventry Carol lyrics]
Lully lulla, thou little tiny Child
By, by, lully lullay
O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day
This poor Youngling for whom we do sing
By, by, lully lullay
Herod the King, in his raging
Charged he hath this day
His men of might, in his own sight
All young children to slay
Then woe is me, poor Child, for Thee
And ever mourn and say
For Thy parting neither say nor sing
By, by, lully lullay
Lully lulla, thou little tiny Child
By, by, lully, lullay
By, by, lully lullay
O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day
This poor Youngling for whom we do sing
By, by, lully lullay
Herod the King, in his raging
Charged he hath this day
His men of might, in his own sight
All young children to slay
Then woe is me, poor Child, for Thee
And ever mourn and say
For Thy parting neither say nor sing
By, by, lully lullay
Lully lulla, thou little tiny Child
By, by, lully, lullay
