These videos use Kanji (Chinese characters used in Japan) with small Hiragana over them (called Furigana), not Romaji. It's very important to learn Hiragana as soon as possible when studying Japanese as Romaji will hurt your pronunciation and hold you back from advancing in the language.
JapanesePod101 has a great series for teaching the basic Hiragana characters called Kantan Kana!
There are a few videos up on YouTube, so please check out the Kantan Kana series:

What a beautiful lullaby! I'm going to listen to this over and over so I can learn it!

[brunettevideos]

Nen-nen korori yo, Okorori yo.

Bōya wa yoi ko da, Nenne shina~

Bōya no omori wa, Doko e itta?

Ano yama koete, Sato e itta.

Sato no miyage ni, Nani morouta?

Den-den taiko ni, Shō no fue.

[ABCsoloABC]

Belle belle!!!

They don't highlight the English words as they are played.

This was one of the first songs I ever learned in Japanese. I forgot it, but just hearing it brought it back. Glad I found this.

; w ; Aaaaw, I remember this song! My mom used to sing it a lot to put me to sleep as a child. It's a shame that my mom doesn't sing it anymore.

This lullaby always makes me appreciate having a home and a family and it always made me feel safe and at peace. And of course, it always moves me to tears!

[granmanelly]

That is heart-rendingly beautiful.

Thank you.
