1. Here we come a-wasailing
Among the leaves so green,
Here we come a wand'ring,
So fair to be seen.
Refrain:
Love and joy come to you,
And to you your wasail too,
And God bless you,
And send you a happy new year,
And God send you a happy new year.
2. We are not daily beggars
That beg from door to door,
But we are neighbors' children
Whom you have seen before.
3. Good Master and good Mistress,
As you sit by the fire,
Pray thing of us poor children
Who wander in the mire.
