Pelīte [English translation]

Pull the sleep, mouse

Through the barn, through the house, through the room,

Silently, silently, lightly

Put it for a child at the end of the cradle

Mouse squeaks, mouse cries,

Mouse's cart is broken

Mouse's cart is broken

Pulling sleep for children here and there

Mouse drives, carts squeaks,

Carries full cargo with sleep

A wisp of sleep for this, a wisp of sleep for that,

Handful of sleep for a child

Cradling, nurturing children of the pigeons,

I myself mother pigeon at the end of the branch

Squirrel came running, threw it down,

Reaching, reaching my hand, can't reach,

Calling, calling voice, can't call.

Cradle, spruce, the child of pigeons,

I myself cradling my brother.
