The Boar's Head Carol Lyrics - The Bells Of Dublin - The Chieftains

The boar's head in hand bear I 

Bedecked with bay and rosemary; 

So I pray you my masters be merry, 

Quot estis in convivio [as many as are at the feast]. 

 

Chorus 

Caput apri defero [I bring in the boar's head] 

Reddens laudes Domino [Giving thanks to the lord] 

Caput apri defero 

Reddens laudes Domino 

The boar's head as I understand 

Is the rarest dish in all the land, 

Which thus bedecked with a gay garland, 

Let us servire cantico [serve it 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 Reginensis atrio [In Queen's Hall].
