Sleep my baby, on my bosom
Warm and cozy it will prove
Round thee daddy’s arms are folding
In my heart a father’s love

There shall no one come to harm thee
Naught shall ever break thy rest
Sleep, my darling, babe, in quiet
Sleep on daddy’s gentle breast

Sleep serenely, baby, slumber
Lovely baby, gently sleep
Tell me wherefore art thou smiling
Smiling sweetly in thy sleep

Does your sister smile upon thee
When thy happy smile she sees
Dost thou on her smile, while slumb’ring
On my bosom peacefully

Sleep my baby, on my bosom
Warm and cozy it will prove
Round thee mommy’s arms are folding
In her heart a mother’s love

There shall no one come to harm thee
Nought shall ever break thy rest
Sleep my darling, babe in quiet
Sleep on mommy’s gentle breast
