About this song
A famous Ukrainian lullaby in which Sleep and Slumber wander past the windows looking for a warm house and a little child to rock. A poetic, beloved cradle song.
How to do it (Step by step)
- Sing slowly and tenderly at bedtime.
- Sway gently in time with the melody.
- Hum the tune as baby drifts off.
Lyrics & Rhyme
The Dream passes by the windows,
And Sleepiness by the fence.
The Dream asks Sleep:
"Where should we stay the night?"
Where the cottage is warm,
Where the little child is tiny,
There we will go to stay the night,
And rock the little child.
There we will rest,
And lull the child to sleep:
Sleep, sleep, my little falcon,
Sleep, sleep, my little dove.
