EN 4495 The Holly and Ivy

John.19.2

Versi Version 1

1

The Holly and the Ivy

Now both are full well grown,

Of all the trees that are in the wood,

The Holly bears the crown.

O the rising of the sun,

The running of the deer,

The playing of the merry organ,

Sweet singing in the quire,

Sweet singing in the quire.

2

The Holly bears a blossom,

As white as lily-flower;

And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,

To be our sweet Savior.

3

The Holly bears a berry,

As red as any blood;

And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,

To do poor sinners good.

4

The Holly bears a prickle,

As sharp as any thorn;

And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,

On Christmas Day in the morn.

5

The Holly bears a bark,

As bitter as any gall;

And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,

For to redeem us all.

6

The Holly and the Ivy

Now both are full well grown,

Of all the trees that are in the wood,

The Holly bears the crown.
