about

This is a french folk lullaby that my mother used to sing for me & her mother used to sing for her. As I started to try to track down where this song was from, I realized that this version seemed to be a hybrid or two different lullabies. Please pardon any errors in the translation. We did our best.

lyrics

Dodo ninette, à la violette.
Endormez moi cette enfant, jusqu'à l'âge de vingt ans.

Quand les vingt ans seront passés, nous irons la marier.
Les petits poissons qui sont dans l'eau,
nagent, nagent, nagent.
Les petits poissons qui sont dans l'eau,
nagent, comme il faut!

Les grands et les petits, nagent, nagent, nagent.
Les grands et les petits, nagent, comme il faut!

Dodo, l'enfant do. L'enfant dormira bien vite.
Dodo, l'enfant do. L'enfant dormira bientôt.

Dodo ninette, à la violette.
Endormez moi cette enfant, jusqu'à l'âge de vingt ans.
Quand les vingt ans seront passés, nous irons la marier.
