Lullaby, the winds are singing  
Lullaby, the winds are singing
On thy mother's breast,  
On thy mother's breast,
Night her mantle round thee flinging,  
Night her mantle round thee flinging,
Rest, my baby, rest;  
Rest, my baby, rest;
Grief and pain the hours may number,  
Grief and pain the hours may number,
Sleep from sorrow flies,  
Sleep from sorrow flies,
Soft and dreamless is the slumber,  
Soft and dreamless is the slumber,
Hovering o'er thine eyes.
Hovering o'er thine eyes.


Steeped in dew each bud and blossom
Steeped in dew each bud and blossom
Slumbers on its stem,  
Slumbers on its stem,
Droop thy head on mother's bosom,
Droop thy head on mother's bosom,
Sleep, my babe, like them.
Sleep, my babe, like them.
Starry eyes in heaven above thee  
Starry eyes in heaven above thee
Silent vigils keep,
Silent vigils keep,
While the arms of those that love thee  
While the arms of those that love thee
Rock thee to thy sleep.
Rock thee to thy sleep.}}

Lullaby, the winds are singing
On thy mother's breast,
Night her mantle round thee flinging,
Rest, my baby, rest;
Grief and pain the hours may number,
Sleep from sorrow flies,
Soft and dreamless is the slumber,
Hovering o'er thine eyes.

Steeped in dew each bud and blossom
Slumbers on its stem,
Droop thy head on mother's bosom,
Sleep, my babe, like them.
Starry eyes in heaven above thee
Silent vigils keep,
While the arms of those that love thee
Rock thee to thy sleep.
