[Baby lies so fast asleep]
Baby lies so fast asleep
That we cannot wake her:
Will the Angels clad in white
Fly from heaven to take her?
That we cannot wake her:
Will the Angels clad in white
Fly from heaven to take her?
Baby lies so fast asleep
That no pain can grieve her;
Put a snowdrop in her hand,
Kiss her once and leave her.
That no pain can grieve her;
Put a snowdrop in her hand,
Kiss her once and leave her.
