LULAY

Lulay thou little tiny child
bye bye lulay lulay
lulay thou little tiny child
bye bye lulay 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
how shall I preserve this day
thou poor youngling for whom I sing
bye bye lulay lulay
