Eugene Field - Old English Lullaby
Work rating: Low

Hush, bonnie, dinna greit;
Moder will rocke her sweete,—
    Balow, my boy!
When that his toile ben done,
Daddie will come anone,—
Hush thee, my lyttel one;
    Balow, my boy!

Gin thou dost sleepe, perchaunce
Fayries will come to daunce,—
    Balow, my boy!
Oft hath thy moder seene
Moonlight and mirkland queene
Daunce on thy slumbering een,—
    Balow, my boy!

Then droned a bomblebee
Saftly this songe to thee:
    "Balow, my boy!"
And a wee heather bell,
Pluckt from a fayry dell,
Chimed thee this rune hersell:
    "Balow, my boy!"

Soe, bonnie, dinna greit;
Moder doth rock her sweete,—
    Balow, my boy!
Give mee thy lyttel hand,
Moder will hold it and
Lead thee to balow land,—
    Balow, my boy!
