Slumber song

Language: English

Dearest, sleep sound,
The stream's ice-bound,
The stream's ice-bound.
Softly the north wind moans,
Drowsy, sleepily, falls the snow,
Falls the snow o'er the dark pinecones.
Dearest, sleep sound, sleep sound.
Dearest, sleep sound,
Misty dreamland's moonlit strand
Awaits the coming guest.
The pine logs smoulder
As soft on my shoulder
A flaxen head sinks to rest, to rest.
Dearest, sleep sound, sleep sound.
Input by Ferdinando Albeggiani
