A star as bright as day, And ever among, a maiden sung, “Lullay, by by, lullay” This lovely lady sat and sung, And to her child did say, “My son, my brother, father dear, Why liest thou in hay?” “My sweetest bird, thus 'tis required, Though thou be king veray, But nevertheless I will not cease To sing żLullay, by by, lullay“
* endris = other I suggest a flexible tempo following the rise and fall of the poem with plenty of gentle rubato. Mitos Andaya recording performed by University of Georgia Chorus |
