English text
The holly and the ivy when they are both full grown
Of all the trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown
Refrain:
Oh, the rising of the sun and the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ, sweet singing in the choir
The holly bears a blossom as white as lily flower
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to be our sweet savior
Refrain
The holly bears a berry as red as any blood
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to do poor sinners good
Refrain
The holly bears a prickle as sharp as any thorn
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ on Christmas Day in the morn
Refrain
The holly bears a bark as bitter as any gall
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ for to redeem us all
Refrain
