Re: Looking for a song in Yiddish

[Lori Cahan-Simon <l_cahan...>]

Simon, I think I may have found it:

Ayle-lyulye,
Shlof, mayn gdule!
Makh tsu dayne
Eygelekh di fayne
Gants gikh un geshvind
Un shtey oyf vider
Mit gezunde glider,
Mayn lib-zises kind!

It doesn't have a name, but it is #77 (page 68) in the 1901 book Yidishe 
folkslider in rusland by S. M. Ginzburg and P. S. Marek.  Unfortunately, 
the book has no musical notation and there are quite a number of the 
songs that I don't know the melodies for.  Does anyone know if the music 
exists for this book of song texts?
