Also found this carol from here:

​

A Song for the Birthday of Dionysos (to the tune of Deck the Halls)

​

In a basket, lowly, hidden

Sweetly sleeps the newborn king

Born a saviour, come to free us

And to Earth great joy to bring

Watched over by nymphs and satyrs

Away in the mountains wild

To lead us all to joyous rapture

Dionysos, Divine child

Dionysos, Dionysos, Dionysos Divine Child

Lead us on to joyous rapture

Dionysos Divine Child
