Lyrics

Slumber, my darling
Thy mother is near
Guarding thy dreams from all terror and fear
Sunlight has passed
And the twilight has gone
Slumber, my darling
The night's coming on
Sweet visions attend thy sleep
Fondest, dearest to me
While, others their revels keep
I will watch over thee
Slumber, my darling
The birds are at rest
Wandering dews by the flowers are caressed
Slumber, my darling
I'll wrap thee up warm
Pray that the angels will shield thee from harm
Slumber, my darling
'Til morn's blushing ray
Brings to the world the glad tidings of day
Fill the dark void
With thy dreamy delight
Slumber, thy mother
Will guard thee tonight
Thy pillow shall sacred be
From all outward alarms
Thou, thou are the world to me
In thine innocent charms
Slumber, my darling
The birds are at rest
Wandering dews by the flowers are caressed
Slumber, my darling
I'll wrap thee up warm
Pray that the angels will shield thee from harm
