Search engine is great and has solved some childhood questions pertaining to songs my grandmother sang.

Ones I cannot find:

"While travelling in a lonesome grove, over my head sat alittle dove..." and

"Sleep little baby sleep, Thy mother is watching the sheep . Thy father is shaking the dreamland tree."

Thanks for any help. David

Here's one:

SLEEP, BABY SLEEP

Sleep, baby, sleep
Your father tends the sheep
Your mother shakes the dreamland tree
And from it fall sweet dreams for thee
Sleep, baby, sleep
Sleep, baby, sleep

Sleep, baby, sleep
Our cottage vale is deep
The little lamb is on the green
With snowy fleece so soft and clean
Sleep, baby, sleep
Sleep, baby, sleep
