Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Adam lay ybounden, bounden in a bond;
Four thousand winter thought he not too long.
And all was for an apple, an apple that he took,
As clerkës finden written in their book.
[Verse 2]
Ne had the apple taken been, the apple taken been,
Ne had never Our Lady, a-been heaven's queen.
Blessed be the time that apple taken was.
Therfore we mown syngyn Deo gratias.
Deo gratias.
