Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Adam lay ybounden
Bounden in a bond
Four thousand winters
[Verse 2]
Though he not too long
And all was for an apple
An apple that he took
[Verse 3]
As clerkes finden written in their book
Nay had the apple taken been
The apple taken been
[Verse 4]
Nay had never our lady
Abeen heavenly queen
Blessed be the time
[Verse 5]
That apple taken was
Therefore we bound singing
Deo gracias, deo gracias
Deo gracias
