Sleep, Baby, sleep

(Schlaf, Kindlein, schlaf)

Sleep, Baby, sleep,
Thy Father guards the sheep,
Thy Mother watches the lamb so white.
While thou dost slumber, my Heart's Delight;
Sleep, Baby, sleep.

Andante

German Folk-tune


Oats and beans and barley grow

Oats and beans and barley grow,
Oats and beans and barley grow,
Do you or I or anyone know
How oats and beans and barley grow?

First the farmer sows his seed.
Then he stands and takes his ease.
Stamps his foot and claps his hand,
And turns around to view the land.

Allegretto English Folk-tune
