Nox Arcana - Coventry Carol Lyrics
Lullay, Thou little tiny Child,Sleep well , lullay, lullay.And smile while dreaming, little onesleep well, lullay, lullay.Fair well Lullay, lullay.O sisters, too, what may we do,To preserve on this day;This poor Youngling for whom we sing,Sleep well, lullay, lullay.Fair Well lullay lullayHerod the King, in his raging,Set forth upon this day;By his decree, no lives spare heAll children young, to slay.All children young, to slayThen woe is me, poor Child, for Thee,And ever mourn and say;For Thy parting, neither say nor sing,Fair well lullay, lullay.Fair well lullay, lallayAnd when the stars fill darken skies,In their far vetchers stay;And smile as dreaming, little oneFair well lullay lullay.Dream now lullay, lullay.
