Christmas Carols You're Not Sick Of, 4/25

Adam lay i-bowndyn

15th Century English

Adam lay i-bowndyn, Bowndyn in a bond, Fowre thowsand wynter Thowt he not to long

And al was for an appil An appil that he tok As clerkes fyndyn wretyn In here book

Ne hadde the appil take ben The appil taken ben Ne hadde never our lady A ben hevene quen

Blyssid be the tyme That appil take was Therfore we mown syngyn Deo gratias.

Modern English

Adam lay bounded Bound in a bond Four thousand winters Thought he not too long

And all was for an apple An apple that he took As clerks find written In their book

If the apple hadn't been taken The apple been taken Then Our Lady never would have Been the Queen of Heaven.

Blessed be the time That the apple was taken! Therefore, we men sing Deo gratias (thanks be to God)

(many tunes to this one exist as the original was sadly lost, but this version is my favorite)
