Hush a bye my baby
Tidurlah sayangku
Slumber time is coming soon
Waktu tidur sudah dekat
Rest your head upon my breast
Sandarkan kepalamu di dadaku
While mommie hums a tune.
Sementara mama mendendangkan lagu.

The sandman is calling
Manusia pasir memanggil
When shadows are falling
Saat bayangan mulai jatuh
While the soft breezes sigh
Saat angin lembut berdesah
As in days long gone by.
Seperti di hari-hari yang telah berlalu.

Way down in Missouri
Jauh di Missouri
Where I heard this melody
Di mana aku mendengar melodi ini
When I was a little feller
Saat aku masih kecil
On my mommie's knee.
Di pangkuan mama.

The old folks were humming
Orang-orang tua mendendangkan lagu
the banjos were strumming
banjo berdentang
So sweet and low.
Sangat manis dan lembut.

--- Instrumental ---

Hush a bye my baby
Tidurlah sayangku
Go to sleep on mommie's knee
Tidurlah di pangkuan mama
Journey back to Dixie Land
Kembali ke Dixie Land
In dreams again with me.
Dalam mimpi bersamaku lagi.

It seems like your mommie
Sepertinya mama mu
Was there once again
Ada di sana sekali lagi
And the old folks were strumming
Dan orang-orang tua berdentang
That same old refrain.
Dengan lagu yang sama.

Way down in Missouri
Jauh di Missouri
Where I learned this lullaby
Di mana aku belajar lagu nina bobo ini
When the stars were blinking
Saat bintang-bintang berkedip
And the moon was standing high.
Dan bulan bersinar tinggi.

And I hear mommie clove
Dan aku mendengar mama menyanyi
As in days long ago
Seperti di hari-hari yang telah lalu
Singing hush a bye
Menyanyikan lagu nina bobo
Singing hush a bye...
Menyanyikan lagu nina bobo...
