English text

Ther is no rose of swych virtu

As is the rose that bar Jhesu.

Alleluia.

For in this rose conteyned was

Heven and erthe in lytle space.

Res miranda.

Be that rose we may weel see

That he is God in personys thre.

Pari forma.

Leave we all this worldly mirth,

And follow we this joyful birth.

Transeamus.

The aungelys sungyn the sheperdes to:

"Gloria in excelsis Deo."

Gaudeamus.

Refrain:

Lullay, lullay, lay, lay, lullay

Mi dere moder, sing lullay

(Anonymous 14th-century carol)
