    Did you mean lullaby? Warabigami is my favorite lullaby, though is rather Okinawan song.

    (Lyrics in Japanese, partly Okinawan)

    ten kara no megumi ukete kono hoshi ni

    umaretaru wagako inori kome sodate

    IRAYO HEI IRAYO HOI

    IRAYO kanashi uminashigo

    nakunayo-ya HEIYO HEIYO

    teda no hikari ukete

    yuiriyoya HEIYO HEIYO

    sukoyakani sodate

    atsuki natsu no hi wa suzukaze wo okuri

    samuki huyu kureba kono mune ni daite

    IRAYO HEI IRAYO HOI

    IRAYO kanashi uminashigo

    nakunayo-ya HEIYO HEIYO

    tsukino hikari abite

    yuiriyoya HEIYO HEIYO

    ten takaku sodate

    (Gist of the lyrics)

    Title: Lullaby of heaven

    Was blest by god, was born on this planet. My baby to whom I gave birth, I’ll bring you up devotedly. Grow up healthy, basking in the shining sun.

    I’ll send you comfortable breeze on hot summer.

    I’ll embrace you in my bosom on cold winter.

    Grow toward the sky, basking in the moonlight.
