Corpus Christi Carol lyrics

He bare hym up, he bare hym down

He bare hym into an orchard brown

Lully, lulley, lully, lulley!

The falcon hath borne my mate away

And in that orchard there was a hall

That was hangid with purple and pall

And in that hall there was a bed

And it was hangid with gold so red

Lully, lulley, lully, lulley!

The falcon hath borne my mate away

And on this bed there lythe a knight

His woundes bleeding day and night

By his bedside kneeleth a may

And she weepeth both night and day

Lully, lulley, lully, lulley!

The falcon hath borne my mate away

By his bedside standith a stone
