ゆりかごの歌を　
かなりやがうたうよ
ねんねこ　ねんねこ　ねんねこよ

ゆりかごの上に　
びわの実がゆれるよ
ねんねこ　ねんねこ　ねんねこよ

ゆりかごのつなを　
木ねずみがゆするよ
ねんねこ　ねんねこ　ねんねこよ

ゆりかごの夢に　
黄色の月がかかるよ
ねんねこ　ねんねこ　ねんねこよ

Translation

 

Cradle song
Sung by the canaries
Bed-time, bed-time, it's bed-time

Above the cradle
The Japanese medlar sways
Bed-time, bed-time, it's bed-time

The cradle's rope
Swung by squirrels
Bed-time, bed-time, it's bed-time

In the cradle's dream
A yellow moon shines
Bed-time, bed-time, it's bed-time
