Lyrics
Lullaby
Night is burning
Human child
Hear us calling
Close your eyes
Take your broken yearning
Dreamer, rise
Rise from the fallen
Lullaby
Rest little one
Lullaby
Baby, don’t cry; it’ll be all right.
Now you lie
Yourself to sleeping
Lullaby,
Your soul we’re taking.
Cradled tight
Velvet starlight pouring
Lifted high
From the mortal morning.
Lullaby
Rest little one
Lullaby
Baby, don’t cry; it’ll be all right.
Rock-a-bye, dream away daylight, despair
Clothed in nocturnal bouquet-flavored air.
Wake if you dare ...
Lullaby
Rest little one
Lullaby
Baby, don’t cry; it’ll be all right.
