Cradle Song
In the tranquil embrace of twilight's grace,
Hush, little one, the stars trace
A path of shimmering, silver light,
Cradling you through the velvet night.
Moonbeams pirouette, a celestial ballet,
Whispering sweet nothings as they play
Upon your downy head, so dear,
Lulling you into dreams, crystal clear.
The willow's branches, they do sway,
As zephyrs hum a tender lay,
A serenade to rock you tight,
Under the watchful eye of night.
Beneath the cosmos' endless sprawl,
The world is hushed, a serene shawl,
Embracing all in slumber's hold,
While dreams for you, the universe unfolds.
The night's embrace, a tender lull,
As stars and moon in beauty mull,
The precious gift of you, asleep,
In dreams where all your treasures keep.
So, close your eyes, my cherub bright,
Let go of day, embrace the night,
In my embrace, your soul at ease,
Sleep, my love, with the world, in peace.
For in this moment, time stands still,
In the quietude, we find our will,
To dream, to love, to be as one,
Until the morning breaks, my sweet one.
