Sleep, sleep, beauty bright
Dreaming in the joys of night;
Sleep, sleep; in thy sleep
Little sorrows sit and weep
Sweet babe, in thy face
Soft desires I can trace
Secret joys and secret smiles
Little pretty infant wiles
As thy softest limbs I feel
Smiles as of the morning steal
O'er thy cheek, and o'er thy breast
Where thy little heart doth rest
O the cunning wiles that creep
In thy little heart asleep!
When thy little heart doth wake
Then the dreadful night shall break
Dreaming in the joys of night;
Sleep, sleep; in thy sleep
Little sorrows sit and weep
Sweet babe, in thy face
Soft desires I can trace
Secret joys and secret smiles
Little pretty infant wiles
As thy softest limbs I feel
Smiles as of the morning steal
O'er thy cheek, and o'er thy breast
Where thy little heart doth rest
O the cunning wiles that creep
In thy little heart asleep!
When thy little heart doth wake
Then the dreadful night shall break
