BIRDS IN THE NIGHT, by LIONEL H. LEWIN First Line: Birds in the night that softly call Last Line: Lullaby, baby, etc. | ||||||||
Birds in the night that softly call, Winds in the night that strangely sigh, Come to me, help me, one and all, And murmur baby's lullaby. Lullaby, baby, While the hours run, Fair may the day be When night is done. Life may be sad for us that wake; Sleep, little bird, and dream not why; Soon is the sleep but God can break, When angels whisper lullaby. Lullaby, baby, etc. | Other Poems of Interest...WYNKEN, BLYNKEN AND NOD by EUGENE FIELD IMPRESSIONS: LES SILHOUETTES by OSCAR WILDE THE GODS OF THE EARTH BENEATH by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN SEA LAVENDER by WILFRID SCAWEN BLUNT BRITANNIA'S PASTORALS: BOOK 1.
