Mery yt ys whil sumer ylast |
Merry it is while summer lasts |
Merry it is while summer lasts |
With fugheles song. |
With birds' songs. |
With birds in song. |
Oc! Now negheth windes blast |
Ah! Now approach blasts of wind |
But then comes the cold wind's blast |
And weder strong. |
And strong weather. |
And weather strong. |
Ey! Ey! What this night is long |
Ay! Ay! This night is so long |
Ei, ei! how this night is long, |
And I wit wel muchel wrong, |
And I, having been done much wrong, |
And I, being done great wrong, |
Sorwe and murne and fast. |
Sorrow and mourn and fast. |
Sorrow and mourn and fast. |
