LULLABY, by ANONYMOUS First Line: Evening shades are falling Last Line: "pleasant dreams of bliss, love / my love, good night" | |||
Evening shades are falling; Time to go to rest; Stars are softly calling Darling to her rest. Sweet the sleep before thee Till morning light; God in heav'n watch o'er thee, My love, good-night. Time to go to bed, love, Lay thee down to sleep; Weary little head, love, God will safely keep. Now the little kiss, love, Arms clasp so tight; Pleasant dreams of bliss, love; My love, good-night. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest..."'TIS MIDNIGHT, AND THE SETTING SUN" by ANONYMOUS "'TWAS ROLLOG, AND THE MINIM POTES" by ANONYMOUS 1648 : FOR COSSACKS by ANONYMOUS A CHERRY YEAR / A MERRY YEAR by ANONYMOUS A COMET FROM THE RHYMERS' CLUB AFAR by ANONYMOUS "A FOX, A FOX, UP GALLANTS TO THE FIELDS" by ANONYMOUS A HORSE AND A FLEA AND THREE BLIND MICE by ANONYMOUS "A LAIRD, A LORD / A COOPER, A THIEF" by ANONYMOUS A LITTLE COCK SPARROW SAT ON A GREEN TREE by ANONYMOUS |
