Lyrics:
Lullay, lullow, lully lullay,
Bewy, bewy, lully, bewy,
Lully, lullow, lully, lullay.
Baw, baw, my bairne,
Slepe softly now.
I saw a swete and semly syght,
A blisful bird,
A blossom bright,
That murning made and mirth among.
Lullay, lullow, lully lullay,
Bewy, bewy, lully, bewy,
Lully, lullow, lully, lullay.
Baw, baw, my bairne,
Slepe softly now.
A Maiden moder mek and myld,
In cradle kep,
A knave child,
That softly slept, she sat and sange.
Lullay, lullow, lully lullay.
Bewy, bewy, Lully, bewy.
Lully, lullow, lully, lullay.
Baw, baw, my bairne,
Slepe softly now.
Bewy = a lullaby sound
Baw, baw my bairne = lullaby sound, my child
Slepe = sleep
Swete = sweet
Semly = seemly
Syght = sight

This is indeed what they should play in places like Kmart and Sears during the Christmas season, as it expresses the true spirit of Christ,. I know, I won't hold my breath...can you imagine what the customers would say if Kmart played this gorgeous song instead of the inane, mediocre crap like 'Rudolph"? Would be fun to see that.

Absolutely beautiful thanks for sharing this stunning performance! - this is track 09 on their album "On Yoolis Night" - I uploaded track 08 "Gabriel: Fram Heven-King" from this album also.
These tracks and tracks 11, 12, 15 are something everybody should hear in this lifetime imho!

I have a couple of albums by this group, including the one this track is from. They're fantastic! They also do a lot of folk songs.
