Words: W Shakespeare, Music: A Tabbush
You spotted snakes with double tongue
Thorny hedgehogs, be not seen
Newts and blind worms, do no wrong
Come not near our fairy queen
Philomel, with melody
Sing in our sweet lullaby
Lulla, lulla, lullaby, lulla, lullaby
Never harm, nor spell nor charm,
Come our lovely lady nigh
So, good night, with lullaby, lulla, lullaby
Weaving spiders, come not here
Hence, you long-legg’d spinners, hence!
Beetles black, approach not near
Worm nor snail, do no offence
