Coventry Carol Songtext
von Jill Tracy

Lully, lully, thou little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lully
Lully, thou little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lully

O sisters two, how may we do
For to preserve this day
This poor youngling for whom we do sing
Bye bye, lully, lully


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 mourn and say
For thy parting neither say nor sing
Bye bye, lully, lully
Bye bye, lully, lully
