The most beautiful lullabye
Bye and bye, bye and bye
The moon’s a slice of lemon pie
The mice who ate the other half
Have scattered star-crumbs in the sky
Bye and bye, bye and bye
My darling baby, don’t you cry
The moon is still above the hill
The soft clouds gather in the sky

Love this poem. I sing it to Brahms lullaby… Works like a charm.

If you google rainbabies movie there is a reading that comes up on vimeo. The woman reading the story sings a beautiful, almost gaelic sounding version of this song – it was much prettier than what I was singing and so I adopted it!
