[Chorus]
Go to sleep, my darling baby
Oh, baby, the moon shines above
Cuddle closer, little baby
Oh, baby, dream sweet dreams of love
[Verse 1]
Why do you sigh?
The stars are shining bright
Then tell your peers goodbye
And kiss mother goodnight
[Chorus]
Go to sleep, my darling baby
Oh, baby, you're my precious one
[Post-Chorus]
Yo-del-lay-hee, lo, lo-hee-oh, del-lay-hee-hee
Oh-del-lay-hee, del-lay-hee-hoo, lo-del-ee, yo-del-lay-hee-hoo
Oh-del-lay-hee, lo, lo-hee-oh, del-lay-hee-hoo
Oh-del-lay-hee, del-loo-hee-oo, dee-oo-del-lay-hee
[Verse 2]
Shadows are falling far o'er land and field
Dreamland is calling to you and to me
Oh, my wonderful child, time to rest, my precious one
The twilight is stealing, for night has come
I'll rock you to sleep whilе the north wind blows
And sing this old lullaby everyonе knows
[Chorus]
Go to sleep, my darling baby
Oh, baby, the moon shines above
Cuddle closer, little baby
Oh, baby, dream sweet dreams of love
[Post-Chorus]
Yo-del-lay-hee, lo, lo-hee-oh, del-lay-hee-hee
Oh-del-lay-hee, del-lay-hee-hoo, lo-del-ee, yo-del-lay-hee-hoo
Oh-del-lay-hee, lo, lo-hee-oh, del-lay-hee-hoo
Oh-del-lay-hee, del-loo-hee-oo, dee-oo-del-lay-hee
