You
spotted snakes with double
tongue,
Thorny hedgehogs, be not
seen,
Newts and blind worms,
do no wrong,
Come not near our fairy
queen.
Weaving spiders, come
not here,
Hence, you long legg'd
spinners,hence!
Beetles black, approach
not near,
Worm nor snail, do no
offence.
Philomel, with melody
Sing in our sweet
lullaby,
Lulla, lulla,
lullaby,lulla, lulla, lullaby,
Never harm, Nor spell
nor charm,
Come our lovely lady
nigh,
So, good night, with
lullaby,
With lullaby, lullaby
What thou see'st when
thou dost wake,
Do it for thy true love
take,
Love and languish for
his sake:
Be it ounce or cat or
hear
Philomel, with melody
Sing in our sweet
lullaby,
Lulla, lulla,
lullaby,lulla, lulla, lullaby,
Never harm, Nor spell
nor charm,
Come our lovely lady
nigh,
So, good night, with
lullaby,
With lullaby, lullaby
Hence, away! Now all is
well
One of us stand sentinel
Hence, away! Now all is
well
One of us stand sentinel
Pard, or boar with
bristled hair,
In thy eye that shall
appear
When thou wak'st, it is
thy dear:
Wake when some vile
thing is near.
Philomel, with melody
Sing in our sweet
lullaby,
Lulla, lulla,
lullaby,lulla, lulla, lullaby,
Never harm, Nor spell
nor charm,
Come our lovely lady
nigh,
So, good night, with
lullaby,
With lullaby, lullaby
With lullaby, with
lullaby
With
lullaby, lullaby
