А с чего же все начинается?
Для родителейДля меня... с колыбельных!
Я до сих пор помню в мельчайших подробностях все песни, которые мне пела мама, какие любимые, какие не очень, некоторые слова, смысл которых я поняла только со временем...
Поэтому на мой взгляд это один из важнейших моментов не только в изучении языка, но и для особого душевного контакта мамы и ребенка. Если вдруг у вас плохо со слухом, голосом или просто трудно петь на английском, то можно включать записи, но обязательно подпевайте! Скоро и ребенок начнет подпевать с вами вместе.
Итак начну с самых известных английских колыбельных:
Вариантов различного исполнения и роликов множество, я выбрала на свой вкус. Все ролики можно скачать, как видео, так и только аудио из них.
1. Twinkle, twinkle little star
(Самая любимая наша колыбельная, русское "баю-баюшки баю" поется на тот же манер)
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
Then the traveller in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.
As your bright and tiny spark,
Lights the traveller in the dark.
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
How I wonder what you are.
How I wonder what you are.
2. Rock A Bye Baby
Rock-a-bye baby, on the treetop
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all
Rock-a-bye, baby,
Your cradle is green,
Father's a King
And Mother's a queen.
Sister's a Lady
And wears a gold ring,
Brother's a drummer
And plays for the king.
Rock-a-bye baby,
Way up on high,
Never mind baby,
Mother is 'nigh
Up to the ceiling,
Down to the ground,
Rock-a-bye baby,
Up hill and down.
3. Lullaby and Goodnight
In the sky stars are bright
May the moons silvery beams
Bring you sweet dreams
Close your eyes now and rest
May these hours be blessed
Til the sky's bright with dawn
When you wake with a yawn
Lullaby and good night
You are mothers delight
Ill protect you from harm
And youll wake in my arms
Sleepyhead, close your eyes
For Im right beside you
Guardian angels are near
So sleep without fear
Lullaby and good night
With roses bedight
Lilies o'er head
Lay thee down in thy bed
Lullaby and good night
You are mothers delight
Ill protect you from harm
And youll wake in my arms
Lullaby and sleep tight
My darlings sleeping
On sheets white as cream
With a head full of dreams
Sleepyhead, close your eyes
Im right beside you
Lay thee down now and rest
May your slumber be blessed
Go to sleep, little one
Think of puppies and kittens
Go to sleep, little one
Think of butterflies in spring
Go to sleep, little one
Think of sunny bright mornings
Hush darling one
Sleep through the night
Sleep through the night
4. Celine Dion - "My Precious One" lullaby
My precious one, my tiny one, lay down your pretty head.
My dearest one, my sleepy one, its time to go to bed.
My precious one, my darling one don't let your lashes weep.
My cherished one my weary one it's time to go to sleep.
Just bow your head and give your cares to me.
Just close your eyes and fall into the sweetest dream, cause in my loving arms.
Your safe as you will ever be so hush my dear and sleep.
And in your dreams you'll ride on angels wings.
Dance with the stars and touch the face of god
And if you should awake I'll send you back to sleep.
My precious one, my tiny one, Ill kiss your little cheek
And underneath the smiling moon Ill sing you back to sleep
5. Hush, little baby
Hush, little baby, don't say a word,
Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird.
If that mockingbird won't sing,
Mama's going to buy you a diamond ring.
If that diamond ring turns brass,
Mama's going to buy you a looking glass.
If that looking glass gets broke,
Mama's going to buy you a billy goat.
If that billy goat won't pull,
Mama's going to buy you a cart and bull.
If that cart and bull turn over,
Mama's going to buy you a dog named Rover.
If that dog named Rover won't bark,
Mama's going to buy you a horse and cart.
If that horse and cart fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.
