Lullay, lullow, lully lullay,
Bewy, bewy, lully, bewy,
Lully, lullow, lully, lullay.
Baw, baw, my bairne,
Slepe softly now.
I saw a swete and semly syght,
A blisful bird,
A blossom bright,
That murning made and mirth among.
Lullay, lullow, lully lullay,
Bewy, bewy, lully, bewy,
Lully, lullow, lully, lullay.
Baw, baw, my bairne,
Slepe softly now.
A Maiden moder mek and myld,
In cradle kep,
A knave child,
That softly slept, she sat and sange.
Lullay, lullow, lully lullay.
Bewy, bewy, Lully, bewy.
Lully, lullow, lully, lullay.
Baw, baw, my bairne,
Slepe softly now.
