Golden Slumbers - Lullaby
Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,
Smiles await you when you rise;
Sleep, pretty baby, do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.
Rockabye, lullaby,
Rockabye, lullaby.
Sweet and warm the sun is high,
Softly do the moments fly;
Sleep, pretty baby, do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.
Rockabye, lullaby,
Rockabye, lullaby.
Do not fear the dark of night,
Starry hosts will bring you light;
Sleep, pretty baby, do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.
Rockabye, lullaby,
Rockabye, lullaby.
Golden slumbers fill your eyes,
Smiles await you when you rise;
Sleep, pretty baby, do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.
Rockabye, lullaby,
Rockabye, lullaby.
