Coventry Carol [Italian translation]

Lully, lullay, Thou little tiny Child,

Bye, bye, lully, lullay.

O, sisters too, how may we do,

For to preserve this day

This poor youngling for whom we do sing

Bye, bye, lully, lullay.

Lully, lullay, Thou little tiny Child,

Bye, bye, lully, lullay.

Herod, the king, in his raging,

Charged he hath this day

His men of might, in his own sight,

All young children to slay.

That woe is me, poor Child for Thee!

And ever mourn and sigh,

For thy parting neither say nor sing,

Bye, bye, lully, lullay.

Lully, lullay, Thou little tiny Child,

Bye, bye, lully, lullay.
