Lullaby
Pretty little bird
Sitting in a tree
Pretty little bird
Waits for me
Sweet little voice
Sings to me
Sweet little voice
High and free
Fly through the air
So much to see
Fly through the air
Wild and free
Pretty little bird
Don’t leave me be
Pretty little bird
Please comfort me
Off to sleep now
My little child
Off to sleep now
Sweet and mild
Time to dream now
My sweet child
Time to dream now
Free and wild
