Sam Pegg's Balalulow for SATB choir with Piano accompaniment. 'The words of Balalulow come from a longer 16th Century Scottish carol. I have tried through the gentle intensity of the music to evoke its remarkable words which locate the meaning of the Nativity not in history or religion but in a simple kindness of heart where a room is always ready.' 'A lullaby it should be sung with a gentle rocking lilt and softly as if sending the young child to sleep.' - Sam Pegg O my deir hert young Jesussweit Prepare thy craydil in my spreit And I sall rocke thee in my hert And never mair from thee depart. But I sall pryse thee evermoir With sang-es sweit unto thy gloir:The knees of my hert sall I bowAnd sing that richt balulalow.
