<poem>
Dormi, Jesu, mater ridet
Quae tam dulcem somnum videt
Dormi, Jesu, blandule.
Si non dormis, mater plorat,
Inter fila cantans orat,
blande, veni, somnule.

<poem>
''by Samuel Coleridge''
 
Sleep sweet babe!
My cares beguiling:
Mother sits beside thee smiling;
Sleep my darling, tenderly.
If thou sleep not,
mother mourneth,
Singing as her wheel she turneth,
come, soft slumber, lullaby.
</poem>

by Samuel Coleridge

Sleep sweet babe!
My cares beguiling:
Mother sits beside thee smiling;
Sleep my darling, tenderly.
If thou sleep not,
mother mourneth,
Singing as her wheel she turneth,
come, soft slumber, lullaby.
