"Coventry Carol" lyrics

"Coventry Carol"

Lully, lulla, thou little tiny Child

By, by lully, lulla
Thou little tiny Child
By, by, lully, lulla

Oh sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day
This pore youngling for whom we sing
By, by, lully lulla

Herod, the king, in his raging
Charged he hath this day
His men of might in his own sight
All young children to slay
