Letra de Holly, Ivy and Rose
Lo, how a rose e'er blooming From tender stem hath sprung! Of Jesse's lineage coming By ancient sibyls sungA rose doth bear a flower All in the cold midwinter And at the midnight hourAnd he waits for who to find The heart she left behind He prays she'll find her way To be his bride somedayIvy Of all the trees in the wood Holly warms the rose Holly and the ivy When they are both full grown Of all the trees in the wood Holly bears the crown Holly and the ivy The running of the deer For his rose to bloom Holly waits every yearHe waits for who to find The heart she left behind He prays she'll find her way To be his bride somedayIvy (They're both full grown) Of all the trees in the wood Holly warms the rose Holly and the ivy When they are both full grown Of all the trees in the wood Holly bears the crown The holly and the ivy The running of the deer For his rose to bloom Holly waits every year For his rose to bloom Holly waits every year Waits every yearLo, how a rose e'er blooming From tender stem hath sprung! The frozen air perfuming That tiny bloom doth swell It's rays the night illuming The darkness quite dispelO flower beyond compare Bloom in our heart's midwinter Restore the springtime here
