Sleep, my Baby, rock-a-bye,
Boots of felt for you I’ll buy.
You will put them on to play
In the snow on winter’s day.
Boots of felt I’ll buy for you,
And a pair of mittens too.
You will put them on to play
In the snow on winter’s day.
Sleep, my Baby, nevermind,
Shoes of bast for you I’ll bind.
You will take them all to play
In the grass on summer’s day.
Shoes of bast I’ll bind for you,
And a mushroom basket too.
You will take them all to play
In the grass on summer’s day.
