Verse 1:
                  C majorC
When the moon cradle's rocking and rocking
               D MajorD
Where a cloud and a cloud go by
           C majorC
Silently rocking and rocking
               D MajorD
The moon cradle's out in the sky

Verse 2:
              C majorC
Then comes the lad with the hazel
               D MajorD
And the folding star's in the rack
               C majorC
"Night's a good herd," to the cattle he sings
            D MajorD
"She brings all things back"

Verse 3:
               C majorC
But the bondwoman down by the boorie
             D MajorD
Sings with a heart grown wild
             C majorC
How a hundred rivers are flowing
            D MajorD
Between herself and her child

Verse 4:
               C majorC
"The geese, even they trudge homeward
               D MajorD
That have their wings and the waste
                 C majorC
Let your thoughts be on Night the Herder
          D MajorD
And be quiet for a space"

Verse 5:
                  C majorC
When the moon cradle's rocking and rocking
               D MajorD
Where a cloud and a cloud go by
           C majorC
Silently rocking and rocking
               D MajorD
The moon cradle's out in the sky

Verse 6:
              C majorC
The snipe, they are crying, crying
           D MajorD
Liadine, liadine, liadine
                   C majorC
Where no track's on the bog, they are flying
            D MajorD
A augmentedA lonely dream will be mine
                   C majorC
Where no track's on the bog, they are flying
            D MajorD
A augmentedA lonely dream will be mine
