Heather Dale - This Endris Night songtekst
Je score:
This endris night I saw a sight A star as bright as day And ever among a maiden sung 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 spake in his talking And to his mother said "Yea, I am known as Heaven's King In crib though I be laid For angels bright down to me alight; Thou knowest it true to say And for that sight thou mayest delight And sing, 'bye bye lullay'" "Yet, sweet son, since thou art a king, Why art thou laid in stall? Why dost not order thy bedding In some great kinges hall? Methinks tis right that king or knight Should lie in good array And then among, it be not wrong To sing 'bye bye lullay'" "Mary, mother, I am thy child Though I be laid in stall For lords and dukes shall worship me And so shall kinges all So in thy arm, thou hold me warm And keep me night and day And if I weep and may not sleep Then sing 'bye bye lullay'"
