Hush now, baby, don't you cry

Rest your wings, my butterfly

Peace will come to you in time

And I will sing this lullaby

No, though I must leave, my child

But I would stay here by your side

And if you wake before I'm gone

Remember this sweet lullaby

And all love through darkness

Don't you ever stop me believing

With love forlorn

With love you'll find your way, my love

The world has turned the day to dark

I leave this night with heavy heart

When I return to dry your eyes

I will sing this lullaby

Yes, I will sing this lullaby
