All through the night,
           When wee birdies are sleeping in the sky,
            Old mother moon sings in sweet tones to her
            Twinkling star babies a soothing and beautiful tune

            Lullaby lullaby twinkling star babies into your cloud beds creep
            Fuzzy bird babies now dream in their cradles lullaby lullaby sleep

            Why does the mother moon sing until morning?
            Won't her star babies obey?
            Yes, but how many she sings into slumber,
            No wonder it takes her til day.












  This was my mother's favorite song when she was a little girl.
