The Wassail Song

1. Here we come a wassailing
Among the leaves so green,
Here we come a wandering
So fair to be seen.

[Chorus]
Love and joy come to you,
And to you your wassail too,
And God bless you and send you a happy New Year.
And God send you a happy New Year.

2. Our wassail cup is made
Of the rosemary tree,
And so is your beer
Of the best barley. [Chorus]

3. We are not daily beggars
That beg from door to door,
But we are neighbours' children
Whom you have seen before. [Chorus]

4. Good Master and good Mistress,
As you sit by the fire,
Pray think of us poor children
Are wandering in the mire. [Chorus]

5. We have a little purse
Made of ratching leather skin;1
We want some of your small change
To line it well within. [Chorus]

6. Call up the Butler of this house,
Put on his golden ring;
Let him bring us a glass of beer,
And the better we shall sing. [Chorus]

7. Bring us out a table,
And spread it with a cloth;
Bring us out a mouldy cheese,
And some of your Christmas loaf. [Chorus]

8. God bless the Master of this house,
Likewise the Mistress too;
And all the little children
That round the table go. [Chorus]
