Sleep Little Baby Sleep Til the Morning Comes
Close your eyes, Say goodnight, Go to sleep my sweet baby....
My mother used to sing this to me when I was young & I've asked her the lyrics other than the chorus, but we can't remember it since its been 30 years ago... I am a mother of children (under 3) :( I would like to pass it down them,
Say goodnight, close your eyes, go to sleep my sweet baby.....

Go to sleep, go to sleep,
go to sleep my sweet Meghan.
In the morning, I'll see you,
and I'll huggle you so much.
'cuz you're mine, you are mine,
'til the end of time.
You are mine, Meghan, mine,
You will always be mine.
You're my girl, my whole world,
My every day gift.
I love you so much, my Meghan Colleen.
'cuz you're mine, you are mine,
'til the end of time,
You are mine, Meggy, mine...
You will always be mine ❤️

Go to sleep,
Go to sleep,
Got to sleep little (child's name),
Close your eyes,
Close your eyes,
Close your eyes and got to sleep.
Go to sleep little one,
Close your eyes and go to sleep,
Go to sleep little one,
Close your eyes and go to sleep.
(Repeat from beginning as needed)
These lyrics came from desperation to sing something for my daughter who wouldn't sleep. I had no idea what the words were, but I remembered the tune.

I came here trying to find the original lyrics too but nothing sounds quite right, but I guess we all improvise.To my three children I've sang:
Lullaby and goodnight, go to sleep now my angel, go to sleep now go to sleep
I'll be here when you awake
Close your eyes and sleep tight
I'll be near you always
Close your eyes close your eyes
I'll be here when you awake.

I've been singing this to my daughter since she was a baby. She's about to turn 8 and we still finish the day like this every night.
"Go to sleep,
Close your eyes,
And I'll see you in the morning.
Go to sleep,
Rest your head,
And I'll see you when you wake up.
Go to sleep,
Close your eyes,
I will see you in the morning.
Go to sleep,
Rest your head,
Yes I love you very much."
This tune was in a toy I had when I was little and I couldn't remember the words so I made these up when she was born.

It's amazing to see so many versions of this lullaby.
Here's the version, short and sweet, that I made up many a moon ago to sing to my children (now all grown):
Lullaby and good night
Close your eyes and sleep tight.
I love you. Yes I do.
You're the one I really love.

Close your eyes
Go to sleep

Close your eyes

I have sung this (and a variety of other songs) to my child and grandchildren since they were born till about 10 yrs of age....
Lullaby and good night
May sleep softly surround you
While your dreams fill your eyes
with a melody of love
May the moonlight embrace you
The starlight caress you
May the sunlight still sing you
the melody of love

Go to Sleep Little Baby
Lullaby:
Go to sleep, go to sleep
Go to sleep little baby.
The buzzards and the flies
They pick at his eyes
And the little thing
hollers out mammie.
Go to sleep, go to sleep
Go to sleep little baby.
When you wake
You'll have some cake.
Go to sleep little baby.

For me the song starts like this:
"close your eyes, and good night
Pleasant dreams are awating
Close your eyes and good night..."
Then I don't remember... 😕
Many thanks in advance

I didn't know the real words to the lullaby when my 1st child was born, so I made up what I could. I've been singing this for 16 years. All 3 of my kids still love for me to sing it to them.
Go to sleep
Go to sleep
Go to sleep now, my baby
Go to sleep now
Go to sleep
Go to sleepy now, sweet dreams
Lullaby and goodnight
Time to close those
Little eyes now
Go to sleep
Go to sleep
mom will see you in
The morning

i have absolutely no idea what the original lyrics are, though this is how i sing it
"Say goodnight
Lullaby
Go to sleep now, sweet baby
Close your eyes
And goodbye
It's time to go to sleep
Here you lie
In your bed
Resting your
Little head
In your mind
Where dreams live
Is where you will go
Tonight"

Dream sweet dreams
And go to sleep

I have my own version that has changed over the years (mainly because I can't remember the words!). I first sang it when my daughter was a little baby (she is now 13), and revisited it when my son came along 6 years ago.
Go to sleep my baby,
Close your big blue eyes,
Angels are watching,
To see you sleep tonight
Go to sleep my baby,
The stars are shining bright,
The moon is high above you,
To take you through the night
(Then repeat the first verse)
I had a memory of my mum singing the original song and just filled in my own words when I couldn't remember what they were!

I was looking to see if there was more to it but I sing it like this:
Go to sleep go to sleep go to sleep little baby
Close your eyes close your eyes close your eyes little baby
Say goodnight say goodnight say goodnight little baby
And I repeat and or sometimes add take deep breaths or something like that but other whose that's all I do.

I would sing these nonsensical words
Go to sleep
Say a prayer
Go to sleep my dear babies
Dream a dream
Lovely dream
Dream again
Oh dream a dream
A lovely sweet dream
Oh dream again
A lovely sweet dream
Knocked them out everytime.
I couldn't remember the words so just sung this. When they were about 7 i said id look for the right words but they said no and stick with these.

Brahm's Lullaby
BRAHM'S LULLABY
Lullaby and good night
In the sky stars are bright
Round your head flowers gay
Scent your slumbers til day
Close your eyes now and rest
May these hours be blessed
Go to sleep now and rest
May these hours be blessed
Lullaby and good night
Go to sleep little angel
Lullaby and good night
God is watching o'er us all
If God wills thou shalt wake
When the morning does break
If God wills thou shalt wake
When the morning does break
Close your eyes now and rest
May these hours be blessed
Go to sleep now and rest
May these hours be blessed

Go to sleep, my sweet little baby
Say goodnight and close your eyes
And when you awake, I'll give you some cake (?)
I'm trying to find this. I *thought* it was Ann Murray on her kids' cd (There's a hippo in the bathtub) but it's not on there so I'm still looking. The timeline is right, too; we played it for my cousin who was a baby in 1988.
I lost my mom last summer so I'd love to be able to play this for our new twins so they can have something 'from her'.

I sing my own version and my kids and now grandchildren love it.
Close your eyes, go to sleep
Dream sweet dreams my sweet baby(ies),
When you wake
You shall have cake
And ride the pretty little ponies.
Apple and gray, dapple and bay,
All the pretty little ponies.
Mommy loves you, daddy loves you,
Go to sleep my sweet girl / boy.
❤❤❤

When I was very young my parents used to sing-
Go to sleep little one close your eyes and go sleep tight.
Go to sleep little one close your tired weary eyes.
Go to sleep little one
Go to sleep little one
And I can't remember the rest of the second 2 sentances.

May these hours be blessed
