Subject: little rhyme

Moin,

In the dairy from my father, who passed away in 2003, I found this
little rhyme:

Ek Stoh op eenem Lilljeblatt,
de Feetkes ware mi immer natt.
De Teller häft e jildne Rand,
Fru Wirtin häft e milde Hand.

Its a rhyme which he learned from my grandparents. I can understand
the vast majoriy of it except the word " jildne"

Anyone who recognizes it?
