The Rocking Carol

[6][7] It was first published in The Oxford Book of Carols, which Dearmer had edited alongside Martin Shaw and Ralph Vaughan Williams, in 1928.

[1] After initial publication, the carol gradually decreased in popularity until the 1960s when the English actress Julie Andrews performed a commercially released version of it.

Budeme té kolíbati, Abys moh' libě pospati, Hajej, nynej, Ježíšku, Pučíme ti kožíšku.

Budeme té kolíbati, Abys moh' libě pospati, Hajej, nynej, miláčku, Mariánský synáčku.

[1] Barry Cooper has argued that it has only minor biblical references and is written without theological content and "painting a wholly imaginary scene".
