¶Lyrics / Text

Hasten hither nymph and swain, Join the dance and song, Hark! the call resounds again From our merry throng! He who fain would dance and play, Let him join our rout, Dance until his feet give way, Sing till breath be out. Fa, la, la, la, la! Hold it though amid your joy, Other thoughts above, How that Cupid, wanton boy, Hereabouts doth rove; Cupid, whose deceitful arts We resist in vain, Who delights to Fill all hearts With his pleasing pain. Fa, la, la, la, la!
