Lullaby

Sleep child sleep bright as Dream comes an' sits beside to rock you in her gossamer wings an' Ariel from the cowslip's bell, now lightly sings Sleep child sleep bright The moon flashes on you her silver light an' sprinkles a beauty unmistaken of sweet innocence an' silken charms from heaven Sleep child sleep bright Hope comes in her flight Her feathered fingers tenderly at your hair Lo! golden she turns them, an' stars strewn in the air! Sleep child sleep bright Titania's seen dancing in the faint sight Roses bright hued, in her sun gold arms Here she comes, to breathe into you her faerie charms! Sleep child sleep bright Sleeping beauty in joyous delight treads softly now her feet light to kiss you baby a sweet goodnight Sleep child sleep bright!
