The Virgin's Slumber Song

Amid the roses mary sits and rocks her jesus child,

While among the tree tops, sighs a breeze so warm and mild.

And soft and sweetly, sings a bird upon the bow

Aaahh baby, dear one, slumber now.

Happy is thy laughter,

Silent is thy holy rest

Lay thy head in slumber,

Soft upon thy mother's breast

aaahh baby dear one, slumber now
