The Coventry Carol Lyrics


Lully, lullay
Lully, lullayLully, lullay, Thou little tiny Child
By, by, lully, lullay
Lully, lullayO sisters, too, how may we do
For to preserve this day?
This poor youngling for whom we sing
By, by, lully, lullayHerod the King, in his raging
Charged he hath this day
His men of might, in his own sight
All young children to slayThat woe is me, poor child, for Thee
And ever mourn and day
For Thy parting [Incomprehensible], nor say nor sing
By, by, lully, lullayLully, lullay, Thou little tiny Child
By, by, lully, lullay
By, by, lully, lullay
By, by, lully, lullayLully, lullay
Lully, lullay

After thirty-one years of world-wide performance and recording, The Sixteen is recognised as one of the world’s greatest ensembles. Comprising both choir and period-instrument orchestra, The Sixteen's total commitment to the music it performs is its greatest distinction. Its special reputation for performing early English polyphony, masterpieces of the Renaissance, bringing fresh insights into Baroque and early Classical music and a diversity of 20th Century music, is drawn from the passions of conductor and founder, Harry Christophers.
