English poem
Baby’S Good-Night
LITTLE eyes droop in the dim evening light; Wave your hand, little maiden, good-bye, good-night;
Throw a kiss to the doggie--he’s wagging his tail-- And wave to the muley-cow down in the dale.
Hark! hark! she is ringing good-night with her bell;-- Now toss to the kitties a sweet farewell.
Good-night to the birds, in the branches asleep, Good-night to the stars that twinkle and peep;
Good-night to the horn of the moon in the west, And toddle away to your warm little nest.
