Dance, little Baby
Dance, little baby ,Dance up high.
Never mind baby , mother is by. Crow and craper,craper and crow; There,Little baby ,there you go up to the ceiling,down to the ground. Backwards and forwards,round and round. Dance, Little baby, and mother will sing with the mercy coral,ding,ding, ding!
Stars
I'm glad the Stars are over me And not beneath my feet. Where we should trample on them like cobbles on the street.I think it is a happy thing that they are set so far; it's best to have to look up high when you would see a star.
Tree Shadows
All hushed
the trees
are watching On tiptoe for the sight of moonrise shedding splendor Across the dusk of nigh. Ah now the moon is risen And lo,without a sound
The trees all write their welcome Far along the ground!
Night
The sun desending in the west the evening star does shine; The birds are silent in their nest,And I must seek for mine.The moon like a flower In heaven's high bower,with silent delight, sits and smiles on the night.
At night
When I go to bed at night ,The darkness is a bear.He crouches in the corner or hides behind a chair, The one who tells me stories- she does not know he's there.But when she kisses me goodnight,And darkness starts to creep Across the floor,why,then I see it's just a woodlly sheep that nibbles at my rugs awhile Before we go to sleep.
Girls and Boys,Come out To play
Girls and boys,come out to play; The moon
doth shine as bright as day; Leave your supper and Leave your sleep. And come with your playgellows into the street. Come with a whoop come with a call, Come with a goodwill, or come not at all. Up the ladder and down the wall, A half penny roll will serve us all. You find milk, and I'll find flour ,And we'll have pudding in half an hour.
My Bed Is Boat
My bed is like a little boat; Nurse help me in when I enbark; she Girds me in my tailor's coat And starts me in the dark.At night. I go on board and say Good night to all my friends on shore;I shut my eyes and sail away And see and hear no more. And sometimes things to bed I take, As prudent sailors have to do ; perhaps a slice of wedding cake, perhaps a toy or two, All night across the dark we steer; But when the day returns at last, safe in my room, beside the pier,I find my vessel fast.
Hush, Little Baby
Hush,Little baby, don't say a word, papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird. If that mockingbird won't sing,papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
If that diamond ring turns brass, papa's gonna buy you a looking glass.If that looking glass gets broke,papa's gonna buy you a Billy goat.If that Billy goat won't pull, papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull. If that cart and bull turn over, papa's gonna buy you a dog named Rover. If that dog named Rover won't bark, papa's gonna buy you a horse and cart.If that horse and cart fall down, you'll still be the sweetest baby in town.
Twinkle, Twitter, Little Stars
Twinkle,twinkle, little star.How I wonder what you are! Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. When the blazing sun is gone, when he nothing shines upon, Then you show your little light, Twinkle,twinkle,all the night. Then the traveler in the dark Thanks you for your tiny spark; He could not see which way to go ,If you did not twinkle so.In the dark blue sky you keep And often thought my curtains peep, For you never shut your eye Till the sun is in sky. As your bright and tiny spark Lights the traveler in the dark, Though I know not what you are, Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
I See the Moon
I see the moon,And the moon sees me; God bless the moon, And God bless me .
Rock- a- bye, Baby
Rock- a - bye, baby,
On the tree- top, when the wind blows, The cradle will rock; when the bought breaks, The cradle will fall, And down will come baby, Cradle and all.
All the pretty Horses
Hushaby,
Don't you cry.
Go to sleep, my little baby. When you wake, you shall have All the pretty little horses. Blacks
And bays,
Apples
And grays.
All the pretty little horses.Hushaby,
Don't you cry.
Go to sleep, my little baby.
