Corpus Christi Carol Songtext
von Cécile Corbel

He bear him up, he bare him down
He bare him into an orchard brown
And in this orchard there was a hall
That was hung with purple and pall

Lully, lulley, lully, lulley
The falcon has borne my mate away

And in that hall there was a bed
It was hanged with gold so red
And in that bed lieth a knight
His wound is bleeding day and night


Lully, lulley, lully, lulley
The falcon has borne my mate away

By his bedside kneeleth a maid
She weepeth both night and day

Lully, lulley, lully, lulley
The falcon has borne my mate away

Lully, lulley, lully, lulley
The falcon has borne my mate away

Lully, lulley, lully, lulley
The falcon has borne my mate away

Lully, lulley, lully, lulley
The falcon has borne my mate away
