Hush-a-bye, don’t you cry, Go to sleepy, little baby.

When you wake, you’ll have cake, and all the pretty little horses.

Blacks and bays, dapples and grays, Coach and six-a-little horses.

Hush-a-bye, don’t you cry, Go to sleepy, little baby. Hush-a-bye, don’t you cry, Go to sleepy, little baby.

When you wake, you’ll have cake, and all the pretty little horses.

See the mother bird tenderly singing, Away in the treetop high,

Where her cozy nest is gently swinging, In time to her lullaby.

Hush-a-bye, rock-a-bye,

In their cradles the babies swing, Hush-a-bye, lullaby,

All the world loves to hear mothers sing. Hear the good night song tenderly falling, O’er cradles where babies sleep,

Where, in love, a prayer softly is calling, That angels, their watch will keep.

All the world loves to hear mothers sing.

(6)

2

See the stars, their watch steadily keeping, O’er birdies and babies fair;

All night long, while dear babies are sleeping, They’re safe in the Father’s care.

Sleep, my child, and peace attend thee, All through the night;

Guardian angels God will send thee, All through the night;

Soft the drowsy hours are creeping, Hill and vale in slumber sleeping, I my loving vigil keeping,

All through the night.

While the moon her watch is keeping, All through the night;

While the weary world is sleeping, All through the night;

O’er thy spirit gently stealing, Visions of delight revealing,

Breathes a pure and holy feeling, All through the night.

(10)

Hark, a solemn bell is ringing, Clear through the night;

You, my love, are heav’nward winging, Home through the night.

Earthly dust from off thee shaken, By good angels art though taken; Soul immortal shalt though waken, Home through the night.

Hush, little baby, don’t say a word,

Mama’s going to buy you a mockingbird. And if that mockingbird don’t sing,

Mama’s going to buy you a diamond ring. And if that diamond ring turns brass,

Mama’s going to buy you a looking glass. And if that looking glass gets broke,

Mama’s going to buy you a billy goat. And if that billy goat won’t pull,

Mama’s going to buy you a cart and bull. And if that cart and bull turn over,

Mama’s going to buy you a dog named Rover. And if that dog named Rover won’t bark,

Mama’s going to buy you a horse and cart. And if that horse and cart fall down,

You’ll still be the sweetest little baby in town.

Lullaby, and good night, With pink roses bedight, With lilies o’erspread, Is my baby’s sweet head. Lay you down now, and rest, May your slumber be blessed! Lay you down now, and rest, May thy slumber be blessed! Lullaby, and good night,

You’re your mother’s delight, Shining angels beside

My darling abide.

Soft and warm is your bed,

Close your eyes and rest your head. Soft and warm is your bed,

Close your eyes and rest your head.

Lullaby and Goodnight

Sleepyhead, close your eyes. Mother’s right here beside you. I’ll protect you from harm,

You will wake in my arms. Guardian angels are near, So sleep on, with no fear. Guardian angels are near, So sleep on, with no fear. Lullaby, and sleep tight.

Hush! My darling is sleeping, On his sheets white as cream, With his head full of dreams.

When the sky’s bright with dawn, He will wake in the morning.

When noontide warms the world, He will frolic in the sun.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are! When the blazing sun is gone, When he nothing shines upon, Then you show your little light, Twinkle, twinkle, all the night. Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are! Then the traveler in the dark Thanks you for your tiny spark;

He could not see which way to go, If you did not twinkle so.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are!

Rock-a-bye, baby, In the treetop,

When the wind blows The cradle will rock; When the bough breaks The cradle will fall,

And down will come baby, Cradle and all.

Baby is drowsing, Cosy and fair. Mother sits near, In her rocking chair. Forward and back The cradle she swings, And though baby sleeps, He hears what she sings. From the high rooftops Down to the sea,

No one’s as dear As baby to me. Wee little fingers,

Eyes wide and bright — Now sound asleep

Until morning light.

(28)

1

Sleep, baby, sleep, Your daddy’s away, Sleep, baby, sleep, And mommy will pray, Pray for your daddy Who sails on the sea, Pray while I’m rocking His babe on my knee; May breezes blow gently Where’er he may be,

And blow him home safely To you and to me;

Safely, safely,

To you and to me, To you and to me.

(29)

2

Sleep, baby, sleep, Your daddy’s away, Sleep, baby, sleep, And mommy will pray, Pray all the night

Through the sea’s sullen roar, Pray while I’m watching

And weeping so sore; But there’s daddy’s voice Coming up from the shore, And now you and I

Are weeping no more, Now you and I

Are weeping no more, Are weeping no more.
