Good health, love and peace be all here in this place |
|
By your leave we will sing, concerning our King. |
|
Our King is well-dressed in silks of the best |
|
In ribbons so rare no king can compare. |
|
We have travelled many miles over hedges and stiles, |
|
In search of our King unto you we bring. |
|
We have powder and shot to conquer the lot, |
|
We have cannon and ball to conquer them all. |
|
Old Christmas is past, twelve tide is the last |
|
And we bid you adieu, great joy to the new. |
|
And we bid you adieu, great joy to the new. |
