Original text and translations
English text
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)
