Oh sister too how may we do
For to preserve this day
This poor youngling for whome we do sing
by by lullay lullay

Herod the king in his raging
Charged her 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 morn and day
For thy parting neither say nor sing
