[Verse 1]
Lullay, the little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay
Lullay, the little tiny child
Bye bye, lully, lullay

[Verse 2]
O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day
This poor youngling for whom we sing
"Bye bye, lully, lullay"?

[Verse 3]
Herod the king, in his raging
Charged he hath this day
His men of might in his own sight
All children young to slay

[Verse 4]
Then woe is me, poor child, for thee
And ever mourn and may
For thy parting nor say nor sing
"Bye bye, lully, lullay."
