Thread Name: Name that song: 'Swallow swiftly flying'
Subject: Name that song: 'Swallow swiftly flying'
Can anyone please help me to identify what I assume is an old English song /lullaby my Grandmother sang:

Swallow swiftly flying, tell me where you go?
When the summer days are dying and the lights are low
I don't wish to be a dunce, I have crossed the ocean once
Swallow swallow I'll not go with you
