Fairy lullaby
R. Quilter
Close thine eyes in slumber sweet,
Lullaby,
While the spangled dews are falling
And the breezes pass on silvery feet;
Where the swaying shadows meet
There are fairies calling
Lullaby, Lullaby.
Fold thy petals pretty rose,
Lullaby,
While the twilight bells are ringing
For the curtains of the day to close;
And beyond the mountain snows
All the golden stars are singing
Lullaby, lullaby.
