Before the day was born,
Before the day was born,
With velvet steps on ground,
With velvet steps on ground,
Which made no print nor sound,
Which made nor print nor sound,
Would see her nymphs abed;
Would see her nymphs abed;
What lives those ladies led.
What lives those ladies led.

Fair Orian, in the morn,
Before the day was born,
With velvet steps on ground,
Which made nor print nor sound,
Would see her nymphs abed;
What lives those ladies led.
The roses blushing said:
O stay, thou shepherd's maid.
And on a sudden all,
They rose and heard her call.
Then sang those shepherds and nymphs of Diana:
Long live fair Oriana.
