Lullay of the Nativity

Refrain

Lullay, my beloved, my dear son,

my sweetest one.

Lullay, my dear heart,

my darling one.

I saw a fair maiden

sitten and sing:

She lulled a little child,

a sweet lordling.

Of all lords he is Lord,

of all kings he is King.

There was much melody

at the child's birth.

All those in Heaven,

they made much mirth.

Angels bright they sang through the night

and said to the child:

"blessed be thou and blessed be she,

meek and mild."
