Coventry Carol

Lully, lullay, thou little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay

O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day
This poor youngling for whom we do sing
"Bye bye, lully, lullay?"

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

That woe is me, poor child, for thee
And ever mourn and may
For thy parting neither say nor sing
"Bye bye, lully, lullay."

Lully, lullay, thou little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay

Wiegenlied von Coventry

Lully, lullay, du kleines, winziges Kind,
Schlaf ein, lully, lullay.

O Schwestern mein, was tun wir nun,
Zu schützen heut' an diesem Tag
Dies arme Kindlein, dem wir singen
"Schlaf ein, lully, lullay?"

Herodes, der König, in seinem Zorn,
Hat befohlen an diesem Tag,
Dass seine Krieger vor seinem Blick
Alle jungen Kinder erschlag'n.

Drum weh mir, armes Kind, um dich,
Und ewig trauern muss und mag,
Um deinen Abschied weder sag' noch sing'
"Schlaf ein, lully, lullay."

Lully, lullay, du kleines, winziges Kind,
Schlaf ein, lully, lullay.
