Любимые колыбельные на английском языке

         
 Колыбельная- один из ритуалов отхода ко сну. Мамин голос хорошо успокаивает и настраивает на отдых. В посте делюсь списком наших любимых колыбельных с рождения. Отбирала их по принципу запоминаемости слов и простоты мелодии.
     Лучше придерживаться принципа 1 день= 1 колыбельная. Несколько колыбельных за одно укладывание может отвлекать ребенка. Если нужно, повторите песню два раза. Второй раз уже в более медленном темпе. 





1. Twinkle, twinkle, little star

   Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
  When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
   Then the traveler in the dark
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
How could he see where to go,
If you did not twinkle so?

   In the dark blue sky you keep,
Often through my curtains peep
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.

As your bright and tiny spark
Lights the traveler in the dark,
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.


2. Hush little baby

  
Hush little baby, don't say a word,
Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird.
And if that mockingbird won't sing,
Mama's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
And if that diamond ring turns to brass,
Mama's gonna buy you a looking glass.
And if that looking glass gets broke,
Mama's gonna buy you a billy goat.
And if that billy goat won't pull,
Mama's gonna buy you a cart and bull.
And if that cart and bull turn over,
Mama's gonna buy you a dog named Rover.
And if that dog named Rover won't bark,
Mama's gonna buy you a horse and cart.
And if that horse and cart fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town!




3. Rock-a-bye baby


Rock a bye baby in the treetop
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all

Baby is drowsing, cozy and fair
Mother sits near in her rocking chair
Forward and back the cradle she swings
Though baby sleeps, he hears what she sings
Rock a bye baby, do not you fear
Never mind, baby, Mother is near
Wee little fingers, eyes are shut tight
Now sound asleep until morning light





4. Lavender's blue

Lavender's blue, dilly, dilly,
lavender's green,
When I am king, dilly, dilly,
you shall be queen.
Who told you so, dilly, dilly,
who told you so?
'Twas my own heart, dilly, dilly, that told me so.

Call up your men, dilly, dilly,
set them to work
Some to the plow, dilly, dilly,
some to the fork,
Some to make hay, dilly, dilly,
some to cut corn,
While you and I, dilly, dilly,
keep ourselves warm.

Lavender's green, dilly, dilly,
Lavender's blue,
If you love me, dilly, dilly,
I will love you
Let the birds sing, dilly, dilly,
And the lambs play
We shall be safe, dilly, dilly,
out of harm's way

I love to dance, dilly, dilly,
I love to sing
When I am queen, dilly, dilly,
You'll be my king.
Who told me so, dilly, dilly,
Who told me so?
I told myself, dilly, dilly,
I told me so
