Sleep Baby Sleep

Sleep, baby, sleep
Thy father tends the sheep
Thy mother shakes the dreamland tree
And down fall pleasant dreams for thee

Sleep, baby, sleep
Our cottage vale is deep
The small lamb is on the green
With snowy fleece so soft and clean
Sleep, baby, sleep
Sleep, baby, sleep

Golden slumber kiss your eyes,
Smiles await you when you rise.

pretty baby,
Do not cry,
And I’ll sing you a lullaby.

While I o’er you watch do keep.

Do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.

Go to sleep-y, small baby.

All the pretty small horses.
Blacks and bays, dapple grays,
Coach and six white horses.
Hush-a-bye don’t you cry,
Go to sleep-y, little baby.

All Through the Night

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 dale in slumber sleeping
I my loved ones’ watch am keeping,
All through the night

Angels watching, e’er around thee,
All through the night
Midnight slumber close surround thee,
All through the night
Soft the drowsy hours are creeping,
Hill and dale in slumber sleeping
I my loved ones’ watch am keeping,
All through the night

Some to the plough, dilly dilly,
Some to the fork

Some to the hay, dilly dilly,
Some to thresh corn
Whilst you and I, dilly dilly,
Keep ourselves warm
