Lullay, Thou little tiny Child,
By, by, lully, lullay
Lullay, 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 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

That woe is me, poor Child for Thee!
And ever morn and day,
For thy parting neither say nor sing,
By, by, lully, lullay
