Judy sings it in English:

Hush, the waves are rolling in
white with foam, white with foam
Father toils amid the din
But Baby sleeps at home
Hush the winds roar hoarse and deep
On they come, on they come
Brother seeks the wandering sheep
But Baby sleeps at home
Hush, the rain sweeps over the nows
Where they roam, where they roam
Sister goes to seek the cows
But baby sleeps at home

This discography that artbrooks posted a link to is far from complete; at least, it doesn't list all the tracks on all the albums.

Judy Collins sang something called GAELIC LULLABY on her album of lullabies called "Baby's Bedtime" on the Lightyear label, 1990. Authorship (or possibly just the arrangement) is credited to Ernest Troost.

I listened to a sound sample, and it seems to be the same song that is discussed in the thread Origins: Name to this song and origins?. The lyrics are posted there.

Could it be Christ Child's Lullaby? The Gaelic title is Taladh Chriosta.

Taladh Christoa
Christ Child's Lullabye

Judy - I have a lot of Gaelic lullabys but don't know which one Judy Collins does. DO you have a title? SOme words, even phonetically? Have you tried searching Judy Collins album track listings to find it?
