Lyrics

MOTHER CHEN
Sleep, little one,
Do not fear,
Do not cry,
Like the stars above,
I’ll watch over you.
So long as I’m here,
Nothing will harm you,
So close your eyes
Sleep until the dawn.
Sleep now, little one,
You were born,
In the land of the free,
The home of the brave,
Where you can be anything
Your heart can dream,
So long as I’m here,
Nothing will harm you,
So close your eyes
Sleep little one,
Sleep in peace,
Sleep until the dawn.
Written by: Henry David Hwang, Huang Ruo
