O ru, ru, ru, my little Jesu, Ru, ru, ru, ru, Close your eyes and slumber. Be still all beasts, do not disturb His sleep, Elephant, mosquito, do not make a sound! O ru, ru, ru, my little Jesu, Ru, ru, ru, ru, Close your eyes in sleep. O ru, ru, ru, mu little Jesu, Ru, ru, ru, ru, angels watch are keeping. All men this night do hail Thee, little one; Silently they kneel before Thee, Holy Child. O ru, ru, ru, ru, my little Jesu, Ru, ru, ru,ru, close your eyes in sleep.

However, the lack of rhymes suggests that they were probably Spanish. | ||

From here. "El Rorro" Mexican Lullaby Carol Estribillo: A la rururu, nino chiquito, Duermase ya mi Jesussito. Del el efanto hasta el mosquito, Guarden silencio, no le hagan ruido. Estribillo Noche venturosa, noche de alegria. Bendita la dulce, divina Maris. Estribillo Coros celestiales, con su dulce accento, Canten la ventura este nacimiento. Estribillo English Translation: "THE BABE" Refrain: A la rururu, My lovely Jesus, In sweetest slumber now rest, my dearest. You elephant so huge, you small mosquito, Be very still, you must not wake the Nino. Refrain O night of glory, night of jubilation, So richly blest by Mary, Queen of Heaven. Refrain Such heav'nly voices in sweet accents singing, The glorious tidings of His birth are bringing! Refrain | ||
