"What
Child Is This?" is a Christmas carol with lyrics written
by William Chatterton Dix in 1865 and set to the tune of
"Greensleeves", a traditional English folk song (possibly by
Richard Jones), in 1871. Although written in Great Britain, the carol today is
more popular in the United States than its country of origin. (Source
