| We've been a-rambling all this night, And sometime of this day; And now returning back again We bring a branch of May. | The heavenly gates are open wide, Our paths are beaten plain; And if a man be not too far gone, He may return again. |
| A branch of May we bring you here, And at your door it stands; It is a sprout well budded out, The work of the Lord's hands. | So dear, so dear as Christ loved us, And for our sins was slain, Christ bids us turn from wickedness Back to the Lord again. |
| The hedges and trees they are so green, As green as any leek; Our Heavenly Father, He watered them With His heavenly dew so sweet. | The moon shines bright, the stars give a light, A little before it is day, So God bless you all, both great and small, And send you a joyful May. |
