A SONG FOR THE BABY ©

My sweet darling,
Sleep now and dream…
Close your blue eyes,
And rest your soul.

Dream of the sea,
The waves that sing;
Suck your cute thumb,
My sweet angel.

When morning comes,
The birds will sing…
When the sun shines,
You will wake up.

I sit with you,
My sweet baby;
Close your eyes, now,
You need some sleep.

La, la, la, la…
I sing for you;
O, darling child,
Sweet dream, sweet dream.
