Ere the moon begins to rise
Or a star to shine
All the bluebells close their eyes;
So close thine
Thine, dear, thine!
Sleep, love, sleep
Slumber deep;
Sleep, sleep, sleep
So sleep
Birds are sleeping in the nest
On the swaying bough;
Thus, against the mother's breast
So sleep thou
Sleep, sleep, sleep!
