¶Liedtext

The flowers for sleep are sighing, The bird is in its nest, The daylight is all hidden With sunshine in the west. And hark! the cricket singing His love-song to the skies, Where all the stars are waiting To see you close your eyes. They wish you all sweet slumber, They wish you all goodnight; They’ll tell the sun to rouse you When once again ’tis light. And while you sleep, the roses May think your cheeks so fair That, in the early morning, You’ll find them resting there. From “Lullaby” in ''Anyhow Stories, Moral And Otherwise'' (1882)
