Britten: A Ceremony of Carols, Op. 28: V. Balulalow

O my deare hert, young Jesu sweit

Prepare thy creddil in my spreit,

And I sall rock thee to my hert,

And never mair from thee depart.

But I sall praise thee evermoir

With sanges sweit unto thy gloir

The knees of my hert sall I bow

And sing that richt Balulalow!
