Little Gifts Until Sleep
Folk lullaby for bedtime at a slow, rocking tempo: acoustic guitar and a soft fiddle, with a gentle mother's voice. Tender and reassuring, sung in English, about a parent promising one little gift after another to soothe a baby to sleep.

Lyrics
The day is done, the sun has set,The grass is wet with dew.So lay your head, my little lamb,I’ll bring a gift for you.Sleep now, my darling,Close your weary eyes.The stars are all watchingFrom the quiet skies.Sleep now, my darling.I’ll bring for you a tiny lark,To sing throughout the night.And if his song should drift away,I’ll bring a candle bright.Sleep now, my darling,Close your weary eyes.The stars are all watchingFrom the quiet skies.Sleep now, my darling.And if that candle flickers low,I’ll fetch a quilt of wool.To keep you warm until the dawn,When the morning bowl is full.Sleep now, my darling,Close your weary eyes.The stars are all watchingFrom the quiet skies.Sleep now, my darling.I’ll bring the moon,I’ll bring the sun.Rest your heart,My little one.
