LULLAY LULLAY COVENTRY CAROL
Lullay, lullay, my little tiny child
By, by, lullay, lullay
Lullay, lullay my little tiny child
By, by, lullay, lullay
O sisters too, how may we do?
For to preserve this day
This poor young ling of whom we do sing
By, by, lullay, lullay
Herod the king in his raging
Charged, he hath this day
His men of might in his own sight
All children young to slay
Then woe is me, poor child for thee
And ever mourn and say
For thy parting nor say nor sing
By, by, lullay, lullay
Lullay, lullay, my little tiny child
By, by, lullay, lullay
Lullay, lullay my little tiny child
By, by, lullay, lull
By,by, lullay, lull
By, by, lullay, lullay

Ear-bleedingly bad rendition! This is supposed to be a lullaby, not a wailing song of mocking hatred.

[CARMSFAV]

How two people can hear something completely different, amazes me. Yes, this is a lullaby, but it is a heart wrenching lament to a death of a child from a mothers heart. I do not hear wailing and definitely not mocking hatred as you state. Only a mothers pain for the imminent death of her newborn can be felt in the sadness of the lyrics. That is what I hear as I listen. The African Children's Choir only adds to the many levels of emotion I feel as I listen.

sill the best version of this song so epic and beautiful could hear this for hours <3

[Kardewski]

Moving and compelling - song from the Middle Ages turned into a monument to the plights and horrors of today, Africa and beyond... Superb
