Egyéb szövegek - Go to sleep my dusky baby - (Dvořak: Humoresque)

Go to sleep my dusky baby
Sleep an' dream of angels maybe
Till yo' mammy rest a little while.

Shut yo' eyes while I am singin'
An' the hummin' bees are wingin'
Makin' honey for my chile.

There on the river where herons hover
Hyacynths sweet are floatin' by
An' white orange flowers wish they were ours
Fill the air with sweetes' perfume for my dear one

Go to sleep my dusky baby
Sleep an' dream of angels maybe
Till yo' mammy rest a little while.

Shut yo' eyes while I am singin'
An' the hummin' bees are wingin'
Makin' honey for my darlin' chile

Pica ninny sleep for the shadows gather
Little birds must rest when the night is near
Mammy watch will keep an' the bad man cannot get yo'
Mammy holds yo' close don't hab no fear

Nightingales will soon in the orange grove be singin'
Fireflies will flash an' the frogs will drone.
Now the moon is risin' o'er the cypress in the meadow
Sleep my little babe, my chile, my own!

Go to sleep my dusky baby
Sleep an' dream of angels maybe
Till yo' mammy rest a little while.

Shut yo' eyes while I am singin'
An' the hummin' bees are wingin'
Makin' honey for my darlin' chile

There on the river where herons hover
Hyacynths sweet are floatin' by
An' white orange flowers, wish they were ours
Fill the air with sweetes' perfume for my chile.
