Now is the Month of Maying
by Thomas Morely, 1558-1603

Now is the month of maying
When merry lads are playing
Fa la la la la la la la la
Fa la la la la la la
REPEAT

Each with his bonny lass
A dancing on the grass
Fa la la la la la la la la
Fa la la la la la la
REPEAT

The spring clad all in gladness
Doth laugh at winter's sadness
Fa la la la la la la la la
Fa la la la la la la
REPEAT

And to the bagpipe's sound
Their nymphs tread up their ground
Fa la la la la la la la la
Fa la la la la la la
REPEAT

Why then why sit we musing
Youth sweet delight refusing
Fa la la la la la la la la
Fa la la la la la la
REPEAT

Say dainty nymphs and speak
Shall we play barley break
Fa la la la la la la la la
Fa la la la la la la
REPEAT
