Little baby, loudly bawling

Mama, mama, softly calling

Trying to sooth her babies cries

She gently looks him in the eyes

"Baby, baby: calm down, my dear

Mama, mama is right here.

Don't you worry; no need to fear.

Mama, mama is very near."

Baby sleeping in her arms

Cuaght beneath a mother's charms

Tender mama falls asleep

And tired both, their dreams do keep ~
