Rock-a-bye, baby
On the treetop
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
If the bough breaks
The cradle will fall
But mama will catch you
Cradle and all

Baby is drowsing
Cozy and fair
Mother sits near
In her rocking chair
Forward and back
The cradle she swings
And though baby sleeps
He hears what she sings

Hush a bye baby
Up in the sky
On a soft cloud
it’s easy to fly
Angels keep watch
Over as you sleep
So hush a bye baby
Don’t make a peep

Rock a bye baby
Do not you fear
Never mind baby
Mother is near
Wee little fingers
Eyes are shut tight
Now sound asleep
Until morning light

Amis, partons sans bruit;

La peche sera bonne,

La lune qui rayonne

Eclairera la nuit.

Il faut qu'avant l'aurore

Nous soyons de retour,

Pour sommeiller encore

Avant qu'il soit grand jour.

REFRAIN

Partons, la mer est belle;

 Embarquons-nous, pecheurs,

Guidons notre nacelle,

Ramons avec ardeur.

Aux matissons les voiles,

Le ciel est pur et beau;

Je vois briller l'etoile

Qui guide les matelots!

Ainsi chantait mon pere,

Lors qu'il quitta le port,

Il ne s'attendait guere

A y trouver la mort.

Par les vents, par l'orage,

Il fut surpris soudain;

Et d'un cruel naufrage

Il subit le destin.

(refrain)

Je n'ai plus que ma mere,

Qui ne possede rien,

Elle est dans la misere

Je suis son seul soutien.

Ramons, ramons bien vite,

Je l'apercois la-bas;

Je la vois qui m'invite

En me tendant les bras.

(refrain) 

There was a friendly, but naive King,
Who wed a very nasty Queen.
The King was loved but,
the Queen was feared.
Til one day, strolling in his court,
an arrow pierced the kind King's heart.
He lost his life and his Lady love.

Z popielnika na Wojtusia
Iskiereczka mruga
Chodź opowiem ci bajeczkę
Bajka będzie długa

Žyła sobie raz królewna
Pokochała grajka
Król wyprawił im wesele
I skończona bajka

Žyła sobie Baba Jaga,
Miała domek z masła.
A w tem dome same dziwy
Pst! Iskierka zgasła.

Z popielnika na Wojtusia
Iskiereczka mruga
Chodź opowiem ci bajeczkę
Bajka będzie długa

Seóthín, seóthó, mo stóirín, mo leanbh, 
Mo sheoid gan chealg, mo chuid den tsaol mhór. 
Seóthín, seóthó, nach mór é a taithneamh, 
Mo stóirín ina leaba, ‘na chodladh gan brón. 
A leanbh mo chléibh, go n-éiri do chodladh leat, 
Séan agus sonas a choice ‘do chomhair. 
Seo beannacht Mhic Dé agus téagar a Bhuime leat. 
Téir a chodladh gan bíogadh go ló. 

Ar mhullach a tSí tá síoga geala, 
Fá chaoinré an earraigh ag imirt a spóirt 
Seo iad aniar chun glaoch ar mo leanbh 
Le mian é a tharraing isteach sa Lios Mór. 
Goirm thú, a chroí! Ní bhfaighidh said do mhealladh 
Le brí a gcleas, ná le binneas a gceol. 
Tá mise led’ thaobh ag guí ort na mbeannacht, 
Seóthín, a leanbh, ní imeoidh tú leo. 

Os comhair mo lao go míochair ceanúil, 
Tá dílroisc aingeal ag faire ina threo, 
Le mórghrá dian á’ iarraidh chun bealaigh 
Mar b’aoibhne Flaithis dá rachadh sé leo. 
A stór mo chroí, luigh siar i do leaba, 
Le taobh do mhama is ea fhanfair go fóill. 
Ní mór liom ag Día mo shiamsa ‘gus m’aiteas, 
Mo ríocht ar talamh i dteannta mo bhróid. 

Szerelem, szerelem,
átkozott gyötrelem,
mért nem virágoztál
minden fatetejen?

Minden fa tetején,
diófa levelén.
úgy szaki^sztott volna
minden leány s legény.

Mer én is szaki^sztottam
s el is szalasztottam.
én is szaki^sztottam
s el is szalasztottam.

Hej de még szaki^sztanék
ha jóra találnék
ha jóra, ha szépre
régi szeretö^mre.

S a régi szeretö^mért
mit nem cselekedném?
Tengerbö^l a vizet
kanállal lemerném.

S a tenger fenekérö^l
apró gyöngyöt szednék
s a régi szeretö^mnek
gyöngykoszorút kötnék.

Oh hush thee my dove, oh hush thee my rowan,
Oh hush thee my lapwing, my little brown bird.

Oh fold thy wings and seek thy nest now,
Oh shine the berry on the bright tree,
The bird is home from the mountain and valley.
Oh horo hi ri ri. Cadul gu lo

Nighty night, sleep tight
Nighty night, sweet dreams
Nighty night, till the morning light
It’s time to dream of happy things
Nighty night, sleep tight
Nighty night, sweet dreams
It’s time to take a break from play
And you’ll wake up to a brand new day
And while the stars area shining
and the moon is all a glow
You’ll be off in sleepy land
A place where dreamers love to go

Ho ho hum
Ho ho hum
Ho ho hum
Sing this tune
And you'll sleep soon
Ho ho hum
Ho ho hum
Ho ho hum
While I try this lullaby
Ho ho hum
They have being yawning this song for ages
I suppose because it's so contagious
Ho ho hum
Ho ho hum
Ho ho hum
It gets so boring
You'll soon been snoring
Ho ho hum
Ho ho hum
Ho ho hum

Sun down, stars rise
Little baby's rubbing her eyes
Lights low, moon high
High up in the sleepytime skies

Dream land, time fly
Listen to the lullaby
Cats purr, fish glide
On their way to sleepytime skies

Sleepytime skies, just a breath away
Baby can fly through the milky way

Night fall, earth spin
Mother Nature's turning in
Sea ebbs, tears dry
Baby's lost in sleepytime skies

Sleepytime skies
Just a breath away
Baby can fly through the milky way

Sun down, stars rise
Little baby's rubbing her eyes
Lights low, moon high
High up in the sleepytime skies

High up in the sleepytime skies
Drifting in the sleepytime skies

Take off the socks
Slip out of the shoes
Dad fell asleep
While watching the news
Daddy is snoring
And he doesn't hear
I kiss him "good night!"
Mom whispers "come here"
Let's take daddy up to bed

Sleep, daddy, sleep
When you dream, dream sweet
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

My little brother
Is drinking his milk
His eyes are so heavy
His hair is like silk
Mama she rocks him
Safe in her lap
Every thing stops
He's taking a nap
Let's take baby up to bed

Sleep, baby, sleep
When you dream, dream sweet
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Mama just washed my flannel PJs
Hot from the drier
I like 'em that way
I hop into bed
She tucks me in tight
I give her a hug
And whisper "good night!"

I can't wait to go to bed!

Sleep, time to sleep
Going to dream, dream sweet

La la lu, La la lu
Oh, my little star sweeper
I’ll sweep the stardust for you

La la lu, La la lu
Little soft fluffy sleeper
Here comes a pink cloud for you

La la lu, La la lu
Little wandering angel
Fold up your wings for tonight

La la lu, La la lu
And may love be your keeper
La la lu, La la lu, La la lu

Hush, little baby, don't say a word,
Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird.

If that mockingbird won't sing,
Papa's going to buy you a diamond ring.

If that diamond ring turns brass,
Papa's going to buy you a looking glass.

If that looking glass gets broke,
Papa's going to buy you a billy goat.

If that billy goat won't pull,
Papa's going to buy you a cart and bull.

If that cart and bull turn over,
Papa`s going to buy you a dog named Rover.

If that dog named Rover won't bark,
Papa's going to buy you a horse and cart.

If that horse and cart fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest little boy in town.

Been around the world so many times, 
I only recognize it from on high. 
I wonder what they hurry for, 
No one sings lullabies no more. 

Been around the world so many times, 
I’m of the air, I’m of the sky. 
I wonder what my feet need the ground for, 
No one sings lullabies no more. 

If you were mine, 
I’d say, 
“Sleep, child.” 
If you were mine, 
I’d say, “Sleep.” 

Been around the world so many times, 
I’m of the air, I’m of the sky. 
I wonder what my feet need the ground for, 
No one sing lullabies no more.

Sleep on child, it is not quite day
For the moon has still to set
Oh the lark she will cry
And bring down the morning to where you lie
But the lark has not risen yet
Oh, the lark has not risen yet

Sleep on child while the birds rest on
And the cow she sleeps in her stall
Oh the meadow stands grey
In this dew-down moment before the day
And waits for the lark to call
And waits for the lark to call

Sleep on child while the fields are still;
They wait for your father's hand
But he will not go
And the sun will not shine and the cock will not crow
Til the lark cries over the land
Til the lark cries over the land

Sleep on child and heed no sound
For your father may rise in the dark
With his boots in his hand
Go drowsily down by the doorway to stand
Waiting for the lark
Waiting for the lark

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

When the blazing sun is gone,
When there's nothing he shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, through the night.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

L´etait une petite poule grise
Qu´allait pondre dans l´église
(Elle) pondait un petit coco
Que l´enfant mangeait tout chaud

L'etait une poule noire
Qu'allait pondre dans l'armoire
(Elle) pondait un petit coco
Que l'enfant mangeait tout chaud

L'etait un petite poule blanche
Qu'allait pondre dans la grange
(Elle) pondait un petit coco
Que l´enfant mangeait tout chaud

L´était un petite poule rousse
Qu´allait pondre dans la mousse.
Pondait un petit coco
Que l´enfant mangeait tout chaud

L´était une petite poule brune
Qu´allait pondre dans la lune.
Pondait un petit coco
Que l´enfant mangeait tout chaud

(L´etait une poule jaune
Qu´allait pondre dans le chaume
(Elle) pondait un petit coco
Que l´enfant mangeait tout chaud)

I found a little beetle, so that beetle was his name,
And I called him Alexander and he answered just the same.
I put him in a matchbox, and I kept him all the day...
And Nanny let my beetle out
Yes, Nanny let my beetle out
She went and let my beetle out-
And beetle ran away.

She said she didn't mean it, and I never sauid she did,
She said she wanted matches, and she just took off the lid
She said that she was sorry, but it's difficult to catch
An excited sort of beetle you've mistaken for a match.

She said that she was sorry, and I really mustn't mind
As there's lots and lots of beetles which she's certain we could find
If we looked about the garden for the holes where beetles hid-
And we'd get another matchbox, and write BEETLE on the lid.

We went to all the places which a beetle might be near,
And we made the sort of noises which a beetle likes to hear,
And I saw a kind of something, and I gave a sort of shout:
"A beetle-house and Alexander Beetle coming out!"

It was Alexander Beetle I'm as certain as can be
And he had a sort of look as if he thought it might be ME,
And he had a kind of look as if he thought he ought to say:
"I'm very, very sorry that I tried to run away."

And Nanny's very sorry too, for you know what she did,
And she's writing ALEXANDER very blackly on the lid,
So Nan and me are friends, because it's difficult to catch
An excited Alexander you've mistaken for a match

Bí, bí og blaka álftirnar kvaka. 
Ég læt sem ég sofi en samt mun ég vaka.

Bíum, bíum, bamba, börnin litlu ramba
fram á fjallakamba ad leita sér lamba.

[Verse 1]
Hush now, my Storeen
Close your eyes and sleep
Waltzing the waves
Diving the deep
Stars are shining bright
The wind is on the rise
Whispering words of long lost lullabies

[Chorus]
Oh, won't you come with me?
Where the moon is made of gold
And in the morning sun
We'll be sailing
Oh, won't you come with me?
Where the ocean meets the sky
And as the clouds roll by
We'll sing the song of the sea

[Verse 2]
I had a dream last night
And heard the sweetest sound
I saw a great white light and dancers in the round
Castles in the sand
Cradles in the trees
Don't cry, I'll see you by and by
