Bedtime Songs Vol 1
Hush-a-bye baby, thy cradle is green, Fathers a noble man, Mothers a queen, Sisters a lady and wears a gold ring, Brothers a drummer and drums for the king.

Welsh Lullaby
To my little ones cradle in the night Comes a little goat, snowy and white. The goat will trot to the market, While Mother her watch does keep, Bringing back raisins and almonds. Sleep, my little one, sleep.

Hush now, my baby. Lie still with your daddy. Your mommy has gone to the mill To grind you some wheat To make you a treat, And so, my dear baby, lie still.

Sleep, my baby, on my bosom. Closely nestle, safe and warm. Mother, wakeful, watches oer you. Round you folded Mothers arms. Sweet, theres nothing near can hurt you. Nothing threatens here your rest.

Hush-a-bye, baby bye. We are rocking, you and I. Hush-a-bye, baby bye. Hush-a, hush-a-bye. Bye-a-bye, my baby. Bye-a-bye, my baby. Hush-a-bye, baby bye. Hush-a, hush-a-bye.

Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep. There, outside, are all the sheep. Lambs are penned up, safe from harm. Sleep, my darling, cozy warm. Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep. Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep. Guardian angels watch will keep. There beneath the apple tree gather they sweet dreams for thee. Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep.

The Clouds
This little pig went to market. This little pig stayed at home. This little pig had roast beef. This little pig had none. And this little pig cried, Wee-wee-wee-wee-wee All the way home.

White sheep, white sheep on a blue hill. When the wind stops, you all stand still. When the wind blows, you walk away slow. White sheep, white sheep, where do you go?

Cradle Song
Slumber Song
Winkum, Winkum
Winkum, winkum, shut your eye While I sing a lullaby, For the night is almost here. Stars are flickering oh so near, And the moonlights peeping over Yonder hilltop capped with clover. Winkum, winkum, shut your eye While I sing a lullaby, for the night is almost here. Stars are flickering oh so near, and the moonlights peeping over yonder hilltop capped with clover.
Be hushed, my dear. Your mothers near. You need no longer weep. Soft melody she sings to thee. Now close your eyes and sleep. Now close your eyes and sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Be hushed, my dear. Dry every tear And rest in slumber deep. With lullaby she holds you nigh. Now close your eyes and sleep. Now close your eyes and sleep. Sleep. Sleep.
Light and rosy be thy slumbers, rocked upon thy mothers breast. She can lull thee with her numbers to the cradled heavn of rest. In her heart is love revolving, like the planets round the moon. Hopes and pleasures fondly solving, keeping every thought in tune.

Go to sleep, my little brother. Go to sleep. Oh, close your eyes. Mother is baking. Cake she is making. It will be ready for brothers awaking. Go to sleep, my little brother. Go to sleep. Oh, close your eyes.

Lul-lul-lul-la-by. Hush, my babe, and do not cry. In your cradle now you swing. Until you sleep, Ill softly sing. Lul-lul-la-by.
