Lullay lullow, lully lullay,
Bewy bewy, lully bewy,
Lully lullow, lully lullay,
Baw my barne, sleep softly now.


I saw a sweetë seemly sight,
A blissful burd, a blossom bright,
That mourning made and mirth of mang
.

Lullay lullow, lully lullay,
Bewy bewy, lully bewy,
Lully lullow, lully lullay,
Baw my barne, sleep softly now.


A maiden mother, meek and mild,
In cradle keep a knavë child,
That softly sleep; she sat and sang.

Lullay lullow, lully lullay,
Bewy bewy, lully bewy,
Lully lullow, lully lullay,
Baw my barne, sleep softly now.
