Come lads and lasses every one

And now let all the company
In friendly manner all agree,
For we are here welcome all may see
Unto this jolly good cheer.


Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it! And a happy new year to all! The words to this are from 1642, and the tune is "Greensleeves" (also used for "What Child is This").

I'm up before everyone, Tabatha. Merry Christmas! Thanks for this beautiful greeting!

Lovely. Thank you. Greensleeves is one of my favorite melodies, and I'm pondering these words set to it.
