The original "Go to Sleep My Baby" lullaby has its roots in England.
The word, picininis is now considered to be an offensive. But when the song was original written, the word was not considered to be offensive at all. Instead it was a common term of endearment for any small child of African heritage. The word, picininis can also be written as: pickaninnies, picaninnies or piccaninnies.

Go to sleep, my little baby
It is way past your bedtime
I know your tired
Please don't fight it
Go to sleep, my baby (inserted baby name here).
Go to sleep, my beautiful one
For tomorrow is another day
When you can smile
When you can play
So sleep peacefully tonight.
