Lullaby

Sing a lullaby to me, dear mother,

Once again make your lap my pillow,

Like a child, I wish to sleep,

The fluffy clouds I soar to,

My troubles vanish with your soothing voice,

Sing a lullaby to me, dear mother.

I reach a land far away,

Deep in dreams, I am close to peace,

Like a child, I wish to sleep.

No more I wish to toss and turn,

Tonight, sleep shall abide by your song,

Sing a lullaby to me, dear mother.

Tired is my soul with life’s struggle,

For one night, I want to stop and rest,

Like a child, I wish to sleep.

Your arms are my place of solace,

This one night will revive the life in me,

Sing a lullaby to me, dear mother 

Like a child, I wish to sleep.
