When i was younger my grandmother used to put us to sleep by singing this german lullaby to us. the only thing i can tell you is that as she sang it she would slap our foot to the beat and then at the end toss it away. it wasnt very long just a few lines of about 3 or 4 syllables a piece (but in German). even since she passed away i've been trying to find out what this lullaby/poem/jingle/song is...i would be forever grateful if someone could help me out. thank you!
