A Lullaby.
   Sleep, baby, sleep; Dream fairies are calling,  Over your drowsy blue eyes The white lids are falling:    Sleep, baby, sleep.
   Sleep, baby, sleep; And nothing shall harm thee:  Mother and angels will watch While dream fairies charm thee    Sleep, baby, sleep.
   Sleep, baby, sleep; Ah! now you are smiling,  Dream fairies sing sweet, Their songs are beguiling:    Sleep, baby, sleep.
