Veni Coronaberis

Dec 20, 2005 01:11



Ivy, chief of trees it is,

Veni coronaberis.

1. The most worthy she is in town,

He that saith other doth amiss;

And worthy to bear the crown;

Veni coronaberis.

2. Ivy is soft and meek of speech,

Against all bale she is bliss;

Well is he that may her reach,

Veni coronaberis.

3. Ivy is green with colour bright,

Of all trees best she is;

And that I prove well now be right,

Veni coronaberis.

4. Ivy beareth berries black;

God grant us all His bliss,

For there shall we nothing lack:

Veni coronaberis.

-a traditional English song.
