English text
Sweet was the song the Virgin sang sang,
When she to Bethlem Judah came,
And was delivered of a Son,
That blessed Jesus hath to name.
"Lullaby, Sweet babe", sang she,
And rocked him sweetly on her knee.
"Sweet babe", sang she; "sweet babe", sang she,
"My Son and eke a Saviour born,
Who hast vouchsafed from on high
To visit us that were forlorn.
"Lullaby, Sweet babe", etc.
Words from William Ballet's Lute Book, 17th cent.
