Bye Baby Night is Come
Bye, baby, day is over,
Bees are drowsing in the clover,
Bye, baby, bye!
Now the sun to bed is gliding,
All the pretty flowers are hiding;
Bye, baby, bye!
Bees are drowsing in the clover,
Bye, baby, bye!
Now the sun to bed is gliding,
All the pretty flowers are hiding;
Bye, baby, bye!
Bye, baby, birds are sleeping;
One by one the stars are peeping;
Bye, baby, bye!
In the far-off sky they twinkle—
While the cows come “tinkle, tinkle;”
Bye, baby, bye!
One by one the stars are peeping;
Bye, baby, bye!
In the far-off sky they twinkle—
While the cows come “tinkle, tinkle;”
Bye, baby, bye!
Bye, baby, mother holds thee;
Loving, tender care enfolds thee;
Bye, baby, bye!
Angels in thy dreams caress thee!
Through the darkness guard and bless thee!
Bye, baby, bye!
Loving, tender care enfolds thee;
Bye, baby, bye!
Angels in thy dreams caress thee!
Through the darkness guard and bless thee!
Bye, baby, bye!
