Thread Name: Tune Req: songs about the magi
Subject: RE: Tune Req: any songs about the magi?
To Liz the Squeak . . . I remember that carol too. It was sung to the tune of Bizet's Farandole. I can't find the lyrics anywhere but I remember a couple more lines:

At break of day as I went on my way,
I saw three kings and they were Eastern sages,
At break of day I went on my way,
I saw three kings . . .[something or other]

First of all came the guards so tall,
Then men at arms with their 30 little pages.


Anyone know any more!?
