There is an awesome version of that on a Tuki and Kivi tape (Country
Yossi), Volume 3.  (For all I know, that may _be_ the popular traditional
tune of which Raquel speaks).  I agree, it is very beautiful, and very
loving and touching when sung to chidren as a bed-time lullaby.

(Raquel, you've inspired me to learn it better!)
