Lullaby,
and good night,
With
pink roses bedight,
With
lilies o'erspread,
Is
my baby's sweet head.
Lay
you down now, and rest,
May
your slumber be blessed!
Lay
you down now, and rest,
May
thy slumber be blessed!
Lullaby,
and good night,
You're
your mother's delight,
Shining
angels beside
My
darling abide.
Soft
and warm is your bed,
Close
your eyes and rest your head.
Soft
and warm is your bed,
Close
your eyes and rest your head.
Sleepyhead,
close your eyes.
Mother's
right here beside you.
I'll
protect you from harm,
You
will wake in my arms.
Guardian
angels are near,
So
sleep on, with no fear.
Guardian
angels are near,
So
sleep on, with no fear.
Lullaby,
and sleep tight.
Hush!
My darling is sleeping,
On
his sheets white as cream,
With
his head full of dreams.
When
the sky's bright with dawn,
He
will wake in the morning.
When
noontide warms the world,
