Sleep, My Love
Sleep, my love, and dream the dreams
That happiness doth bring.
Lie awhile, beside me love,
'Til awakened by birds that sing.
Our life and love are ever more
Entwined between we two.
For I am yours and you are mine
And what is old is still new.
I love you still as when we met.
You are my light, my life,
And happiness is here with me
As e'er I am your wife.
So sleep my love, my only love,
As God sends dreams from above.
