Lords and ladies all bydene, For your goodness and honour, Will you sing all of a queen; Of all women she is the flower. Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell This said the angel Gabriel. 2. Of Jesse there sprang a wight, Isaiah said by prophecy, Of whom shall come a man of might, From death to life He will us buy. Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell This said the angel Gabriel. 3. There came an angel bright of face, Flying from heaven with full great light, And said, "Hail! Mary, full of grace, For thou shalt bear a man of might." Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell This said the angel Gabriel. 4. Astonied was that lady free, And had marvel of that greeting. "Angel," she said, "how may that be? For never of man I had knowing." Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell This said the angel Gabriel. 5. "Dread thou nothing, Mary mild, Thou art fulfilled with great virgue; Thou shalt conceive and bear a child That shall be named sweet Jesu." Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell This said the angel Gabriel. 6. She kneeled down upon her knee, With heart, thought, and mild cheer: "As thou hast said, so may it be, God's handmaid I am here." Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell This said the angel Gabriel. 7. Then began her womb to spring, She went with child without man, He that is lord over all thin, His flesh and blood of her had then. Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell This said the angel Gabriel. 8. Of her was born our Heaven-King, And she a maid nevertheless; Therefore be merry and let us sing, For this new lord of Christmas. Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell This said the angel Gabriel. Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
