Brahms' Lullaby
by Johannes Brahms

Lullaby and goodnight,

With lilies of white

And roses of red

To pillow your head;

May you wake when the day

Chases darkness away,

May you wake when the day

Chases darkness away.

Lullaby and goodnight,

Let angels of light

Spread wings round your bed

And guard you from dread.

Slumber gently and deep

In the dreamland of sleep,

Slumber gently and deep

In the dreamland of sleep.
