SLUMBER, slumber, darling; peace enfolds thee ; In her arms she holds thee Gently whilst I sing. Rest thee, rest thee, deep in dreamland rest thee, Up to heaven haste thee, Echoes ring. Fair the hour, Deep the power Which afar from every ill Lulled thee, softly hushed and still—so still ! Slumber, slumber, darling; peace enfolds thee ; In her arms she holds thee, whilst I sing. Wake thee, wake thee, in the early morning, When the sunlight, dawning, Whispers it is day; Sweetly, sweetly, from thy dreams emerging, As swiftly flows the surging Wave away. Fairy faces, Elfin graces, Softly whisper all day long Of thy dreaming by my song, my song. Wake thee, wake thee, in the early morning, When the sunlight, dawning, whispers day ! GOMNGOOO SS (SO)
