English text
- O hush thee, my baby, thy sire was a knight,
- Thy mother a lady both tender and bright, both tender and bright;
- The woods and the glens from the tow'rs which we see,
- They are all belonging, dear babie to thee,
- They are all belonging, dear babie to thee.
- O hush thee my babie.
- O fear not the bugle, though loudly it blows;
- It calls but the warders that guard thy repose, that gard thy repose.
- Their bows would be blended, their blades would be red,
- Ere the step of a foeman draws near to thy bed,
- ere the step of a foeman draws near to thy bed.
- O hush thee my babie.
- O hush thee my babie, the time soon will come,
- When thy sleep shall be broken by trumpet and drum, by trumpet and drum.
- Then hush thee my darling, take rest while you may,
- For strife comes with manhood, and waking with day,
- For strife comes with manhood, and waking with day.
- O hush thee, O hush thee, O hush thee, O hush thee my babie!
