Go to Sleep, Nina
Lullaby
Lullaby
(Bahasa Indonesia)
(English)
Nina bobo
oh, nina bobo
Kalau tidak bobo
digigit nyamuk
boboklah bobo
adikku sayang
kalau tidak bobo
digigit nyamuk
Go to sleep, Nina,
Oh, go to sleep Nina.
If you don't sleep
The mosquito will bite.
Sleep, go to sleep,
My beloved sibling.
If you don't sleep
The mosquito will bite.
Many thanks to Suzi Herawati for contributing this version of Nina Bobo and for the lovely recording!
