The soft good night OF a mother is heard;
Lullaby. laddie!
Lullaby, dear!
Sleep little sweetheart. for mother is
near!
The brides all sleep in their nests up on
high
The stars and the moon are on guard in
the sky:
Lullaby. laddie dear!
| Hushl Lullaby!
| The manned wooden dog lies at rest on the
floor
| Where the Noah's ark travellers are
| scattered
| The train is derailed and wrecked there
by the door.
Its gay-painted coaches all battered;
And silence DER all, for the world tx at
| rest;
Just the low mother voice TO the child on
her breast
Lullaby, laddie!
Hush, little dear!
Sleep. weary playmate, for mother is
here!
| The brides, too, rest In their cradles on
high;
The stars and the moon keep their watch
in the sky;
Lullaby. laddie dear!
