Nursery Rhyme or lullaby?
The lyrics to this famous nursery rhyme were first published in 1765.
The words and lyrics to this song are often crooned to a baby in an effort to
rock them to sleep. When repeating this song children often make a rocking motion with their hands and arms. The imagery conveyed
appeals to a child's imagination! The origins and history of this nursery rhyme are said to originate from America and the habit of
some Native Americans of placing a baby in the low branches of a tree allowing the young child or baby to be rocked to sleep.

Hush a bye baby, on the tree top,
When the wind blows the cradle will rock;
When the bow breaks, the cradle will fall,
And down will come baby, cradle and all.
