Translated lyrics
Sleep, sleep my little girl. Your father will return from work with a gift when the moon rises.
Notes
(comments from another user): I know this song with Yiddish lyrics (my grandmother sang it to me) and would like to find a Yiddish version to buy or at least see the lyrics of. They went like this: "Lu li, lu li, klaynike, lu li lu li lu. Lu li, lu li, shaynike, lu li lu li lu. Dayn tateh iz in feld avek..." I can't remember the rest. Anyone know where to find this? I found it in Hebrew on a recording by Tanja Solnik.
