The Chieftains - The Boar's Head lyrics

The boar's head in hand bear I, Bedeck'd with bays and rosemary. And I pray you, my masters, be merry Quot estis in convivio (Translation: As many as are in the feast) CHORUS Caput apri defero (Translation: The boar's head I offer) Reddens laudes Domino (Translation: Giving praises to the Lord) The boar's head, as I understand, Is the rarest dish in all this land, Which thus bedeck'd with a gay garland Let us servire cantico. (Translation: Let us serve with a song) CHORUS Our steward hath provided this In honour of the King of Bliss; Which, on this day to be served is In Reginensi atrio. (Translation: In the Queen's hall) CHORUS The boar's head in hand bear I, Bedeck'd with bays and rosemary. And I pray you, my masters, be merry Quot estis in convivio (Translation: As many as are in the feast) CHORUS
