¶Lyrics / Text

Softly the night winds sigh, Sleep, dearest, sweetly sleep; Sweet be thy dreams, while I my vigils keep. Sleep while the moon, afar, Floods all the earth with light; Sleep, while the beaming stars whisper a sweet goodnight. Softly, sweetly sleep, then for no danger is near thee: Dream till the dawn's early light, Dream until the morning bright, For angels will guard thee tenderly, dear, thro' all the silent night; Thus may our lives ever glide together, as we're drifting on. For I will be ever at thy side, Until the night is gone. Sleep, dearest, sweetly sleep, Soft winds are whisp'ring low; Night spreads her mantle deep O'er all elow. Sleep while the moon, afar, Floods all the earth with light, Sleep, while the beaming stars whisper a gentle goodnight; Dear heart sleep on until the dawn.
