Hush, no more, hush, no more,
Hush, no more, be silent all.
be silent, be silent, be silent all.
Sweet repose has clos'd her eyes,  
Sweet repose, sweet repose has clos'd her eyes,  
soft as feather'd snow does fall!
soft as feather'd snow does fall!
Softly, softly, softly,
Softly, softly steal from hence.
softly steal from hence.
No noise disturb her sleeping sense.
No noise, no noise disturb her sleeping sense.
