VERSE 1: Sleep, my darling, oh, sleep,/ My sweet one on my breast/ Close thy blue eyes, little love,/ Rest, my darling, rest/ Soft blows the gentle southwind,/ Sweet from over the summer sea;/ Dream on, my darling, dream, my child,/ My sweet one, dear to me,/ Sleep, my babe, sleep, my child. VERSE 2: Sleep, dear, while the bright stars/ Their silent watch doth keep/ Sleep, dear, while the fair moon/ Softly guards thy sleep,/ Thy mother shakes the dreamland tree,/ Bright dreams fall down on thee;/ Dream on my darling, dream, my child,/ My sweet one, dear to me,/ Sleep, my babe, sleep, my child. CHORUS: Then, rockaby, baby on the treetop,/ When the wind blows, the cradle will rock,/ When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall,/ Down comes the baby, tree top and all, | |
