about

now the holly bears a berry as white as the milk
and mary bore jesus, who was wrapped up in silk.

and mary bore jesus our saviour to be
and the first tree in the greenwood, it was the holly.
holly, holly,
and the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly.

now the holly bears a berry as green as the grass
and mary bore jesus, who died on the cross.

and mary bore jesus our saviour to be
and the first tree in the greenwood, it was the holly.
holly, holly,
and the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly.

now the holly bears a berry as black as the coal
and Mary bore Jesus, who died for us all.

and mary bore jesus our saviour to be
and the first tree in the greenwood, it was the holly.
holly, holly,
and the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly.

now the holly bears a berry as blood is it red
then trust we our saviour who rose from the dead.

and mary bore jesus our saviour to be
and the first tree in the greenwood, it was the holly.
holly, holly,
and the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly.
