Lullaby
by Christina Rossetti
Lullaby, oh, lullaby!
Flowers are closed and lambs are sleeping;
Lullaby, oh, lullaby!
Stars are up, the moon is peeping;
Lullaby, oh, lullaby!
While the birds are silence keeping, Lullaby, oh, lullaby!
Sleep, my baby, fall a-sleeping, Lullaby, oh, lullaby!
The Song of the Frog a Japanese nursery rhyme adapted by Charlotte
B. DeForest
So hushaby, baby, if you’ll go to sleep, I’ll give you a pretty red
flower to keep. But if you keep crying, a big ugly frog Will croak by
your side—kerchog! kerchog!
Lullaby to a Naughty Baby a Venezuelan nursery rhyme adapted by Joan
Gilbert Van Poznak
Lullaby, naughty child,
Your nonsense drives your mother wild.
Lullaby, arrurru, What can Mama do with you?
Work all day, up all night, By morning nothing’s going right.
Lullaby, arrurru, What can Mama do with you?
