Veni Coronaberis
Mediaeval Baebes

15th Century English

The most worthye she is in towne
He that seith other do amiss
(And) worthy to ber the crowne
Veni, coronaberis

Ivy is soft and mek of spech
Ageinst all bale she is blysse
Well is he that (may) her rech
Veni, coronaberis
Veni, coronaberis

Ivy is green with colour bright
Of all trees best she is
And that I preve well now be right
Veni, coronaberis
Veni, coronaberis

Ivy bereth beris black
God graunt us all his blisse
For there shall we nothing lack
Veni, coronaberis
Veni, coronaberis
Veni, coronaberis
Veni, coronaberis

Veni, coronaberis
Veni, coronaberis
Veni, coronaberis
Veni, coronaberis
She is the worthiest in the world
Those who say otherwise are wrong
And she is worthy to bear the crown
Come, you shall be crowned

Ivy is soft of speech, and mild
In the face of evil she stands for good
He who attains her is blessed indeed
Come, you shall be crowned
Come, you shall be crowned

Ivy's hus is brilliant green
Among trees, she is the most exalted
And now the truth I prove to you
Come, you shall be crowned
Come, you shall be crowned

Ivy bears berries of deepest black
God grant that we all get to heaven at last
For in that place we shall nothing lack
Come, you shall be crowned
Come, you shall be crowned
Come, you shall be crowned
Come, you shall be crowned

Come, you shall be crowned
Come, you shall be crowned
Come, you shall be crowned
Come, you shall be crowned
