Lullaby

Hisashi Yamamoto

Sleep and rest, sleep and rest,
Sleep, my good sonny boy!
Morning isn’t here yet,
So dream some pretty dreams
And don’t you every cry!

Sleep and rest, sleep and rest,
Sleep, my good sunny boy!
Like the blossom in the twilight,
Close your eyes and go to sleep
And don’t you ever cry!
