This endris night I saw a sight A star as bright as day And 'ere among a maiden sang Lullay bye bye lullay This lovely lady sat and sang And to her child did say "My son, my brother, father, dear Why liest thou thus in hay" The child then spoke in his talking And to his mother said "Yea, I am known as Heaven's King Though I in crib be laid" Methinks it right that king or knight Should lie in good array And then among, it were no wrong To sing bye bye lullay Mary, mother, I am that child Tho' I be laid in stall For lords and dukes shall worship me And so shall kinges all Now tell, sweet son, I thee do pray Thou art my love and dear How should I keep thee to thy pay And make thee glad of cheer My dear mother, thou hold me warm And keep me night and day And if I weep and may not sleep Thou sing bye bye lullay Thou sing bye bye lullay Aus Songtexte Mania
