Sleep, my baby, on my bosom, closely nestle safe and warm.
Mother, wakeful, watches o'er you, round you folded mother's arm.
Sweet, there's nothing near can hurt you, nothing threatens here your rest.
Sleep, my baby, sleep and fear not, sleep you sweetly on my breast.

Lulla, lulla, sweetly slumber, mother's treasuring, slumber deep.
Lulla, lulla, now you're smiling, smiling, dear one, through your sleep.
Say, are angels bending o'er you, smiling down from heav'n above?
Is that heav'nly smile your answer, love from dreamland answ'ring love?

Hush, my treasure, 'tis a leafet beating, beating on the door.
Hush, my pretty, 'tis the ripple lapping, lapping on the shore.
Mother watches nought can harm you, angel warders gather nigh.
Blessed angels, bending o'er you, sing you lullaby.
