1. Velc, pelīte, saldu miegu latviešu tautas dziesma
2. Kar, māmiņa ,šūpulīti latv. tautas dziesma




Bring a mouse,sweet sleep
Velc, pelīte, saldu miegu
Bring a mouse
sweet sleep to a little baby

Bring quietly and slowly
if a cat does not hear

If the cat hears you
it will take your fur- coat off

When you bring sweet sleep
sleep on a pillow yourself.
Velc, pelīte, saldu miegu
mazajam(i) bērniņam.

Klusītēm(i), lēnītēm(i),
Lai kaķītis nesadzird.

Kad kaķītis sadzirdēsi,
Novilks tavu kažociņ"".

Savilkusi saldu miegu,
Guli pati pagalvī.

It is a nice,easy-singing and easy-playing ancient folk song-lullaby.Everybody in Latvia can remember it since childhood.
Šī ir jauka,viegli dziedama un viegli nospēlējama ,sena latviešu tautas dziesma- šūpuļdziesma.Katrs latvietis to atceras no savas bērnības.




Hang on,mummy,a cradle
Kar, māmiņa ,šūpulīti latv. tautas dziesma
Hang on, mummy, a cradle
Hang on the top of the hill.

If you don"t swing me up,
The wind will swing me.

Sleep, sleep, one eye
Both eyes will sleep soon.

When both eyes slept,
I will sleep sweet sleep.
Kar, māmiņa,
šūpulīti Kari kalna galiņā.

Ja tu mani nešūposi
Šūpos mani vējiņisi.

Miga ,miga vien" actiņa,
Drīz aizmiga abas acis.

Kad aizmiga abas acis,
Tad gulēšu saldu miegu.

This song was popular in ancient times in Latvia.When the cradles were hung on for babies.There was a tradition to make and hang on the cradle for every baby.It was done by godparents or parents.The cradle was built of birch,oak or linden wood.Nowadays the cradles become popular again.
Sī dziesma bija populāra Latvijā senos laikos.Tad bērniņam tika kārts šūpulītis.To darināja krustvecāki vai vecāki.Šūpulīti darināja no bērza,ozola vai liepas koka.Mūsdienās daudzi vecāki izvēlas šūpulīti nevis gultiņu savam bērniņam.
