Baloo My Boy |
| Baloo, my boy, lie still and sleep |
| It grieves me sore to hear thee weep |
| If thou’lt be silent I’ll be glad |
| Thy moaning makes my heart full sad |
| Baloo, my boy, thy mother’s joy |
| Thy father bred me great annoy |
| Baloo, baloo, baloo, baloo |
| Baloo, baloo, lu-li-li-lu |
| O’er thee I keep my lonely watch |
| Intent thy lightest breath to catch |
| O, when thou wak’st to see thee smile |
| And thus my sorrow to beguile |
| Baloo, my boy, thy mother’s joy |
| Thy father bred me great annoy |
| Baloo, my boy, lie still and sleep |
| It grieves me sore to hear thee weep |
| Twelve weary months have crept away |
| Since he, upon thy natal day |
| Left thee and me, to seek afar |
| A bloody fate in doubtful war |
| Baloo, my boy, lie still and sleep |
| It grieves me sore to hear thee weep |
| If thou’lt be silent, I’ll be glad |
| Thy moaning makes my heart full sad |
| I dreamed a dream but yesternight |
| Thy father slain in foreign fight |
| He, wounded, stood beside my bed |
| His blood ran down upon thy head |
| He spoke no word, but looked on me |
| Bent low, and gave a kiss to thee! |
| Baloo, baloo, my darling boy |
| Thou’rt now alone thy mother’s joy |
