about

a simple lullaby for my happy-by-day but awake-by-night youngest child.

lyrics

Chorus
Sleep, my little bonny boy
Dream away the long night
Just close your eyes, my tired one
‘Til the first morning light

1
For your Mam is worn out
Your Dad is tired too
And the lads, snug in their beds
They are dreaming for you

Chorus

2
You’ve had milk, I’ve held you close
Now you’re drowsy, warm and dry
Lullabies I have sung for you
So why do you cry?

Chorus

3
Dream of Dom on his guitar
As you loudly drum along
And Sean on his fiddle
Their love makes you strong

Chorus

4
One day you’ll be a man
With a family of your own
Then we’ll miss the cry at midnight
And our old noisy home

Chorus
