\u201cWhen she [Yocheved, Moses\u2019 mother] could no longer hide him, she took an ark made of papyrus for him, and lined it with clay and pitch; she placed the child inside and put it among the reeds by the bank of the Nile.\u201d (Exodus 2:3)<\/p>\n

Yocheved:
\nLullaby,
\nHush, don\u2019t cry,
\nThe reeds and water will shelter you;
\nLullaby,
\nHush, don\u2019t cry,
\nMy son, my
\nLittle goat that Abba<\/em> bought for two pennies.
\nNo cat will scratch you,
\nNo dog will bite you,
\nNo stick will beat you.
\nThe reeds and water will guard you,
\nI swear.<\/p>\n

My son, may you grow to be a scholar,
\nThe letters of the Torah \u2014
\nThe raisons and almonds you\u2019ll eat;
\nIts verses \u2014 your milk,
\nIts words \u2014 your honey.
\nLullaby,
\nHush, don\u2019t cry,
\nMy son, my yingele<\/em>.<\/p>\n

How can I hide you?
\nHow can I hold you?<\/p>\n

The reeds and water have sworn
\nTo watch over and guide you
\nTo a haven.<\/p>\n

Pharaoh\u2019s daughter:<\/em>
\nLullaby,<\/em>
\nHush, don\u2019t cry.<\/em>
\nThe reeds and water have sheltered you and brought you to me,<\/em>
\nLittle one.<\/em>
\nNo fire will burn you,<\/em>
\nNo ox will gore you,<\/em>
\nNo butcher, no angel of death will snatch you,<\/em>
\nBy the reeds and water I swear.<\/em><\/p>\n

Little one,<\/em>
\nMy only one,<\/em>
\nMay you grow to learn wisdom,<\/em>
\nTo understand<\/em>
\nWhy the reeds whisper God\u2019s praises as they bend in prayer,<\/em>
\nWhy the water purifies them with God\u2019s grace,<\/em>
\nWhy He has given you<\/em>
\nTo me.<\/em><\/p>\n

Lullaby,<\/em>
\nHush, don\u2019t cry.<\/em>
\nMay I hold you?<\/em>
\nMay I have you?<\/em>
\nMy little one,<\/em>
\nMy little son,<\/em>
\nBy the reeds and water I swear<\/em>
\nTo watch over and guide you<\/em>
\nTo the heavens.<\/em><\/p>\n","image":{"ID":104111,"id":104111,"title":"-625c710cedb8c--625c710cedb8fex2-cradle.png","filename":"625c710cedb8c-625c710cedb8fex2-cradle.png.png","filesize":0,"url":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2018\/09\/625c710cedb8c-625c710cedb8fex2-cradle.png.png","link":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/en\/lullabies-for-moses\/625c710cedb8c-625c710cedb8fex2-cradle-png\/","alt":"","author":"7","description":"","caption":"","name":"625c710cedb8c-625c710cedb8fex2-cradle-png","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":40599,"date":"2022-04-17
