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.
