Sound the flute!
Now it's mute!
Birds delight, Day and night, Nightingale, In the dale, Lark in sky, -
Merrily, Merrily, merrily to welcome in the year.
Little boy, Full of joy;
Little girl, Sweet and small;
Cock does crow, So do you;
Merry voice, Infant noise;
Merrily, merrily to welcome in the year.
Little lamb, Here I am;
Come and lick My white neck;
Let me pull Your soft wool;
Let me kiss Your soft face;
Merrily, merrily we welcome in the year.
