kenneth leighton – the star-song lyrics

Loading...

tell us, thou clear and heavenly tongue
where is the babe but lately sprung?
lies he the lily+banks among?

or say, if this new birth of ours
sleeps, laid within some ark of flowers
spangled with dew+light; thou canst clear
all doubts, and manifest the where

declare to us, bright star, if we shall seek
him in the morning’s blushing cheek
or search the beds of spices through
to find him out?

star. no, this ye need not do;
but only come and see him rest
a princely babe in’s mother’s breast

he’s seen, he’s seen! why then around
let’s kiss thе sweet and holy ground;
and all rejoice, that we havе found
a king before conception crown’d

come then, come then, and let us bring
unto our pretty twelfth+tide king
each one his several offering;
and when night comes, we’ll give him wassailing;
and that his treble honours may be seen
we’ll choose him king, and make his mother queen
