Choir of The Queen's College, Oxford, Lucy Wakeford and Owen Rees - A Ceremony of Carols: IVa. That yongë child

That yongë child when it gan weep
With song she lulled him asleep
That was so sweet a melody
It passèd alle minstrelsy
The nightingalë sang also
Here song is hoarse and nought thereto
Whoso attendeth to her song
And leaveth the first then doth he wrong
