Polish Lullaby (help)

My Nana used to sing me a Polish lullaby that I still sing in my head. I can sing it, have no idea how in the world to ever write the words in Polish as even the few words I have are, over the years, dwindling. It was a song about mama calling all the children home from the neighborhood. Forgive me, but it was something like (phoenetically):

Chastu domo chas, mama volo naz ... mama skeeham dobyaczie ..
Thanks for reading, Cheryl

Merged: Does anyone recognize this lullaby?

My Grandma sang a song to us as children. She sang it as a lullaby. My father believes it was in Polish (his grandmother sang it to him). I apologize in advance -- I know no Polish and my grandma was deaf at the time when she sang it to us. I'm guessing it has lost much of its originality! I'll try to reproduce it phonetically. ;). (My 8-year old sings it now. I would love to have the actual words to accurately) preserve this sweet family tradition). Here goes!

Bop-scoe meadow chidi-up go yay no shek in ba

Eeks! Good luck with that! I pray someone knows what this is!

Could you upload somewhere an audio file with your singing? Maybe the melody will help with recognizing it, because the text is a total word salad disaster.
