THE FARM CHILD'S LULLABY

Oh, the little bird is rocking in the cradle of the wind,

And it's bye, my little wee one, bye;

The harvest all is gathered and the pippins all are binned;

Bye, my little wee one, bye;

The little rabbit's hiding in the golden shock of corn,

The thrifty squirrel's laughing bunny's idleness to scorn;

You are smiling with the angels in your slumber, smile till morn;

So it's bye, my little wee one, bye.

There'll be plenty in the cellar, there'll be plenty on the shelf;
