Lullaby of the Rose

Cláudio Franco de Sá Santoro

A star sleeps in the sky,

The rose sleeps in its garden

The moon rests in the sea,

Love sleeps inside of me.

You must tread softly,

Ah, you must not speak.

My love is slumbering,

How sweet is her perfume,

Sleep in peace, pure rose,

Your slumber has no end.
