Sleep, baby, sleep

Night time: precious harmonies drift softly under the clouds
Only the sweetest symphonies could possibly shift this silence
Lullabies sung gently to your resting spirit
Not a soul dare disturb you tonight

Child amongst the shooting stars,
Blessed and beautiful; wrapped in the finest silk
Motherly breast will stay with you tonight
Mother’s love will watch over you now and forever
Lay down your pretty head, think nothing of the Earth
Only the kingdom you rule as Prince
Safely away from the world

Sleep, baby, sleep
For tomorrow is beautiful
