Here we bring new water

from the well so clear,

For to worship God with,

this happy New Year.

Sing levy dew, sing levy dew,

the water and the wine;

The seven bright gold wires

and the bugles that do shine.

Sing reign of Fair Maid,

with gold upon her toe,—

Open you the West Door,

and turn the Old Year go.

Sing reign of Fair Maid

with gold upon her chin,—

Open you the East Door,

and let the New Year in.

Sing levy dew, sing levy dew,

the water and the wine;

The seven bright gold wires

and the bugles they do shine.
