Dolly's lullaby

H. Hermann

Sleep now my dolly, sleep.

See the sun is gone,

And from Heav'n the darkness

Softly's falling down.

So, so, so, so, so, so, so,

Sleep now my dolly, sleep sweet,

So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so.

Sleep my dolly, sleep.

Hear the bad wind blow.

All the streets are buried

Under heaps of snow.

Sev'n the clock is striking

From the old church steeple,

Time to tuck in bed safe,

All good little people.

So, so, so, so, so, so, so,

Dolly, oh please go to sleep.

So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so.
