11Sweet was the song the virgin sung, Sweet was the song the Virgin sang,
22When she to Bethelm was come, When she to Bethlem Juda came
33And was delivered of her Son, And was delivered of a Son,
44The blessed Jesus hath to name, That blessed Jesus hath to name:
55Lulalula, lulaby "Lulla, lulla, lulla-bye,
66Lulalula, lulaby Sweet Babe," sang she,
77Sweet Babe quoth she, And rocked him sweetly on her knee.
88My Son, and eke a Saviour borne,
99Who hath vouchsafed from on high, "Sweet Babe," sang she, "my son,
1010To visit us that were forlorne, And eke a Saviour born,
1111Lulalula, lulaby, Who hath vouchsafèd from on high
1212Sweet Babe sang she, To visit us that were forlorn:
1313And sweetly rockt him, rockt him, rockt him, "Lalula, lalula, lalula-bye,
1414And sweetly rockt him, rockt him, Sweet Babe," sang she,
1515And sweetly rockt him on her knee.And rocked him sweetly on her knee.
