The Nurse’s Song Lyrics
Lullaby baby
Lullaby baby
Thy nurse will tend thee as duly as may be
Lullaby baby!
Be still, my sweett sweeting, no longer do cry;
Sing lullaby baby, lullaby baby
Let dolours be fleeting, I fancy thee, I ...
To rock and to lull thee I will not delay me
Lullaby baby
Lullabylabylaby baby
Thy nurse will tend thee as duly as may be
Lullabylabylaby baby
The gods be thy shield and comfort in need!
The gods be thy shield and comfort in need!
Sing Lullaby baby
Lullabylaby baby
They give thee good fortune and well for to speed
And this to desire ... I will not delay me
This to desire ... I will not delay me
Lullaby lullaby
Lullaby baby
Thy nurse will tend thee as duly as may be
Lullabylabylabylaby baby
