Daddy's gone to work - He went, Daddy went. He'll return when the moon comes out - He'll bring you a present! Sleep, sleep... Daddy went to the vineyards - He went, Daddy went. He'll return when the stars come out - He'll bring you grapes! Sleep, sleep... Daddy went to the orchard - He went, Daddy went. He'll return in the evening with the wind - He'll bring an apple! Sleep, sleep... Daddy went to the field - He went, Daddy went. He'll come back in the evening with the shadows - He'll bring you ears of grain!
