Lully, lulla, thou little tiny child Bye, bye, lully, lullay, thou little tiny child Bye, bye, lully, lullay Oh, sisters too, how may we do For to preserve this day? This pore yongling for whom we do sing "Bye, bye, lully, lullay"? Lully, lulla, thou little tiny child Bye, bye, lully, lullay, thou little tiny child Bye, bye, 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 Lully, lulla, thou little tiny child Bye, bye, lully, lullay, thou little tiny child Bye, bye, lully, lullay That one is me, poor child for thee And ever morn and may For thy parting, nether say nor sing Bye, bye, lully, lullay Lully, lulla, thou little tiny child Bye, bye, lully, lullay, thou little tiny child Bye, bye, lully, lullay
