Dormi, Jesu! Mater ridet
(Sleep sweet babe! My cares beguiling: )
Quae tam dulcem somnum videt,
(Mother sits beside thee smiling;)
Dormi, Jesu! Blandule!
(Sleep, my darling, tenderly! )
Si non dormis, Mater plorat,
(If thou sleep not, mother mourneth,)
Inter fila cantans orat,
(Singing as her wheel she turneth:)
Blande, veni, somnule.
(Come, soft slumber, balmily!)
