Once, as I remember,

After mid December,
When it bloweth cool,
I o'erheard a Mother
Was a-singing, 'Sweet Jesu,

On my knee fell I,
in the Bethlem stable

Once, as I remember,
 At the time of Yule,
After mid December,
 When it bloweth cool,
I o'erheard a Mother
 Was a-singing, 'Sweet Jesu,
 La-lullay-lu, La-lullay-lu.'

Near as man was able,
 On my knee fell I,
in the Bethlem stable
 Where the Babe did lie,
And the Virgin-mother
 Was a-singing, 'Sweet Jesu,
 La-lullay-lu, La-lullay-lu.'

Herdmen from the prairie
 Came and piped for glee
For the Babe and Mary:
 King of Glory he.
Then the Virgin Mother
 Fell a-singing, 'Sweet Jesu,
 La-lullay-lu, La-lullay-lu.'

Ox and ass around him,
 Courtier-like, did stand:
Fair white linen bound him,
 Spun by Mary's hand.
While the Virgin-mother
 Was a-singing, 'Sweet Jesu,
 La-lullay-lu, La-lullay-lu.'

To this Lord, contented
 To endure the cold,
Easterlings presented
 Incense, myrrh and gold:
Then the Virgin-mother
 Fell a-singing, 'Sweet Jesu,
 La-lullay-lu, La-lullay-lu.'

Ever among and o'er us
 Angel-quire gan sing
Antiphons in chorus
 To the new-born King.
Then the Virgin-mother
 Fell a-singing, 'Sweet Jesu,
