The Coventry Carol

Lully lulla thou little tiny child

Bye, bye, lully lulay

O sisters too how may we do?

For to preserve this day

This poor youngling for whom we do sing

Bye, bye, lully lulay

Herod the king in his raging

Charged he hath this day

His men of might in his own sight

All young children to slay

That woe is me poor child for thee

And ever morn and day

For thy parting neither say nor sing

Bye, bye, lully lulay

Lully lulla thou little tiny child

Bye, bye, lully lulay

Oh, oh, oh
