Sleep, sleep
close your eyes and fly away
Sleep, sleep
I am here with you
Here comes the wolf, howling at the door
Here comes the wolf to carry you away
But he hears my song and runs back to his wood
He will come back no more
Sleep, sleep..
Here comes Death, with her blood-stained skull
Here comes Death to carry you away
But she hears my song and cannot get through
She will come back no more
