Klingon word:   najmoHwI'
Part of Speech: noun 
Definition:     lullaby 
Source: KGT (220 KE, 249 EK) 
Swedish: vaggvisa


Additional Notes:
KGT p. 77.  Among the songs sung exclusively to or by children is the {najmoHwI'} (literally "one that causes one to dream"), or lullaby, and the {Dap bom} (literally, "nonsense song"), which teaches and reinforces Klingon musical patterns, even though the words themselves are, for the most part, meaningless.
