[Verse 1]
Oh sleep, sweet babe
Though the snow is cold and deep around
Just sleep, dear babe
Through the wind's so keen and icy sound

[Verse 2]
Oh hush, sweet babe
There is nothing you should fear
Just hush, dear babe
For my love is always here

[Verse 3]
And I will hold you, safe in my arms
So no evil can touch you
You can come to no harm
Wake now, dear babe
Now the night is nearly through
Wake now, sweet babe
There's a world that's waiting here for you
