The "Wran" the "Wran" the King of all birds
On Stephens Day she was caught in the firs
Mrs ______ is a lady. Mr _____ is a gentleman
To your house we brought the Wran
We dipped her head in a barrell of beer
We wish ye all a Happy New Year
So up with the kittle and down with the pan
And give us a penny or two to bury the Wran
