Hazhó'ígo nits'áál bii' sínítį́įgo íłhosh,
Hazhó'ígo nits'áál bii' sínítį́įgo íłhosh.
My baby, little one, do not cry, do not cry.
Softly may you sleep, softly may you sleep now,
softly may you sleep.
Don't show me your dark eyes. Softly may you sleep...I'm telling you now!
My baby, little one, do not cry, do not cry.
Softly in your cradleboard may you lay, now sleep.
Hazhó'ígo íłhosh, hazhó'ígo íłhosh k'ad,
