Sleep, my baby, sleep, my boy; <br />Rest your little weary head; <br />'Tis your mother rocks her baby <br />In his little cradle bed. <br /> <br />Lullaby, sweet lullaby! <br /> <br />All the little birds are sleeping, <br />Every one has gone to rest, <br />And my precious one is resting <br />In his pretty cradle nest. <br /> <br />Lullaby, sweet lullaby! <br /> <br />Sleep, O, sleep, my darling boy; <br />Wake to-morrow fresh and strong; <br />'Tis your mother sits beside you, <br />Singing you a cradle song. <br /> <br />Lullaby, sweet lullaby!<br /><br />Eliza Lee Follen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lullaby-67/
