The Holly and the Ivy 歌詞

 

The Holly and the Ivy - The Choir of St Paul's Cathedral

The holly and the ivy

 

When they are both full grown

 

Of all the trees that are in the wood

The holly bears the crown

O the rising of the sun

And the running of the deer

 

The playing of the merry organ

Sweet singing in the choir

 

The holly bears a blossom

As white as lily flower

And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ

To be our sweet Saviour

O the rising of the sun

And the running of the deer

 

The playing of the merry organ

 

Sweet singing in the choir

 

The holly bears a berry

As red as any blood

 

And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ

To do poor sinners good

O the rising of the sun

And the running of the deer

 

The playing of the merry organ

 

Sweet singing in the choir

 

The holly bears a prickle

As sharp as any thorn

 

And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ

On Christmas Day in the morn

O the rising of the sun

And the running of the deer

 

The playing of the merry organ

 

Sweet singing in the choir

 

The holly bears a bark

As bitter as any gall

 

And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ

For to redeem us all

O the rising of the sun

And the running of the deer

 

The playing of the merry organ

 

Sweet singing

 

Sweet singing in the choir
