English lyric of Mozart's cradle song as I know them

by Esther Jean N.
(Swansea W.Glam)

These are the lovely lyrics sung to me by my late mother:

Sleep little bird in your nest
Mother is watching your rest
While neath the moon's silvry beam
Ships softly glide all a'gleam
Gossamer sails shining bright
Beckon across the soft night
Shall I come sailing with you
Where happy dreams come true
O lu -----layloo
