"Gaelic Lullaby" lyrics

"Gaelic Lullaby"

Hush, the waves are rolling in
White with foam, white with foam
Father toils amid the din
But baby sleeps at home

Hush the winds roar hoarse and deep
On they come, on they come
Brother seeks the wandering sheep
But baby sleeps at home

Hush, the rain sweeps over the knows
Where they roam, where they roam
Sister goes to seek the cows
But baby sleeps at home
