Lullaby, my little baby,
Close your eyes so bright,
While the moon pours o'er the cradle,
All her silvery light.
While the moon pours o'er the cradle,
All her silvery light.

I will tell the tale of fairies,
Lull you with a song,
While the moon, a lonely wanderer,
Creeps across the sky.
While the moon, a lonely wanderer,
Creeps across the sky.
