Sunlight is dying in the golden west./Ev’ry bird is sleeping in its cozy nest./Shadows are falling over land and sea,/Day is done, and all is peace over hill and lea./All through the long night, while you sleep, I pray/Happy dreams be yours, dear, till the dawn of day./So sleep, baby darling, safe with mother near,/Through the hours of darkness slumber without fear/Close those brown eyes, dear, rest your curly head,/Angels bright will watch by thee standing ‘round thy bed. | |
