1. Late, late, so late! and dark the night and chill! Late, late, so late! but we can enter still. Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now; Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now. 2. No light had we; for that we do repent, And learning this, the Bridegroom will relent. Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now; Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now. 3. No light, so late, and dark and chill the night, O let us in that we may find the light. Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now; Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now.
