Lullaby

Sleep now, little one,
there's nothing to fear
when I'm here
beside you

The night is cold;
let's cover you up
wrap you up in the blankets that mommy made
and light a single candle
to stave away the dark

Sleep now, and dream of wonders
of sights unseen,
of dreams of beauty and light

What's at the end of the rainbow?
Or on the other side of the sea?
What wonders await you tomorrow?
Sleep now, and dream these for me

Goodnight, my little one
A kiss, and a tuck, and a song,
A flickering candle, a whispered goodnight,
A scattering of blessing, and a pause at the door...
I love you, my baby, sleep tight
