When the night drops its cloak
Sings my voice mild and mellow
Comes to me from our folk
An offhand cradle song
When the day must depart
Is the night your playfellow
Like a dog is my heart
And with you runs along
When the stars in the sky
Set their shrine in your cradle
Wordless dreams may fly high
With my green lullaby
Your fair face fills my mind
And removes pain and sorrow
The distress rests behind
Standing you by my side
Enjoy your sweetest dreams
Don't be afraid of tomorrow
In the night, your smile gleams
And its shines, my way, guide
When the stars in the sky
Set their shrine in your cradle
Wordless dreams may fly high
With my green lullaby
When the stars in the sky
Set their shrine in your cradle
Wordless dreams may fly high
With my green lullaby
