Romany Suttur Gillie

Jaw to sutturs, my tiny chal;
Your die to dukker has jall’d abri;
At rarde she will wel palal
And tute of her tud shall pie.

Jaw to lutherum, tiny baw!
I’m teerie deya’s purie mam;
As tute cams her tud canaw
Thy deya meerie tud did cam.

GYPSY LULLABY

Sleep thee, little tawny boy!
   Thy mother’s gone abroad to spae,
Her kindly milk thou shalt enjoy
   When home she comes at close of day.

Sleep thee, little tawny guest!
   Thy mother is my daughter fine;
As thou dost love her kindly breast,
   She once did love this breast of mine.
