Little Bird, My Sweet.

"Many years, long since past
 When I was but young,
 My mother sang a song to me
 Just as the day was done.
 She sang me off to sleep that night
 With voice so soft and low,
 Though I was frightened of the trouble
 I had come to know.
 
"Little bird, my sweet child.
 Little bird, my darling,
 Little bird, my baby sweet,
 No harm will hurt your sleeping.
 
"My sleep that night was gentle,
 My dreams, they were of beauty,
 I heard no whisper in my sleep;
 No nightmare came to snare me.
 I woke to find my dream come true!
 The terrors - they had fled.
 I keep the memory of the morn,
 The day my mother said:
 
"Little bird, my sweet child.
 Little bird, my darling,
 Little bird, my daughter sweet,
 No harm will hurt your waking.
 
"The time for sorrow is gone.
 The day of joy is here.
 Our lives can find the happiness
 we've lost for many years.
 The seige that we were under
 All our suffering is done
 The foe has left our doorstep
 the time to live has begun!
  
"Little bird, my sweet child.
 Little bird, my darling,
 Little bird, my daughter sweet,
 Come join with me in singing."
