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

That woe is me
Poor child for thee!
And every morn and day
For thy parting
Neither say nor sing
By by, lully lullay!
