Coventry Carol / King Without a Mountain |
Lullay lully thou little tiny child |
Bye-bye lullay lully |
Now woe is me poor child for thee |
I ever mourn and sign |
O sisters too how may we do |
For to preserve this day |
This poor youngling for whom we sing |
Bye-bye lullay lully |
Herod the king in his raging |
Charged he hath this day |
His men of might in his own sight |
All young children to slay |
Here the royal cataclysm |
Herod in his raging |
Merciless swift ambition |
None to him worth saving |
Can you hear the childless mothers say |
«Martyred murdered how hast thou been slain» |
Here a king without a mountain |
No chariot to come to him |
Lean in close now and listen |
«Prepare the golden diadem» |
And I hear the child’s mother say |
Nearer clearer «Thou hast come to reign» |
