Here we come
a-was-sail-ing a-mong the leaves so green,
Here we come a-wan-der-ing, so fair - to be
seen:
Love and joy come to you, And to you your
was-sail too,
And God bless you and send - you a hap--py
New Year,
And God send you a hap--py New
Year. Our was-sail cup
is made - of the rose--ma-ry tree,
So - is your beer - of the best -
bar--ley:
Love and joy come to you, And to you your
was-sail too,
And God bless you and send - you a hap--py
New Year,
And God send you a hap--py New
Year.
We are not dai-ly beg--ers that beg from
door to door,
But we are neigh-bours' child--ren whom you
have seen be-fore:
Love and joy come to you, And to you your
was-sail too,
And God bless you and send - you a hap--py
New Year,
And God send you a hap--py New
Year.
Call up the but-ler of this house, put on
his gold-en ring;
Let him bring us a glass of beer and bet-ter
we shall sing:
Love and joy come to you, And to you your
was-sail too,
And God bless you and send - you a hap--py
New Year,
And God send you a hap--py New
Year.
We have got a lit-tle purse of stretch-ing
lea-ther skin;
We want a lit-tle of your mon-ey to line it
well with-in:
Love and joy come to you, And to you your
was-sail too,
And God bless you and send - you a hap--py
New Year,
And God send you a hap--py New
Year.
Bring us - a - ta--ble and spread it with
a cloth;
Bring us out a moul-dy cheese and some of
your Christ-mas loaf:
Love and joy come to you, And to you your
was-sail too,
And God bless you and send - you a hap--py
New Year,
And God send you a hap--py New
Year.
God bless the mas-ter of this house,
like-wise the mis-tress too;
And all the lit-tle child--ren that round the
tab-le go:
Love and joy come to you, And to you your
was-sail too,
And God bless you and send - you a hap--py
New Year,
And God send you a hap--py New
Year.
Good mas-ter and good mis--tress, while
your're sit-ting by the fire,
Pray think of us poor child--ren a-wan-d'ring
in the mire:
Love and joy come to you, And to you your
was-sail too,
And God bless you and send - you a hap--py
New Year,
And God send you a hap--py New Year. |
