Gartan Mothers Lullaby

Celtic Woman · Other Songs - Celtic Woman

Sleep, O babe, for the red bee hums the silent twilight's fall

Eeval from the grey rock comes to wrap the world in thrall

A lyan van o, my child, my joy, my love and heart's desire

The crickets sing you lullaby beside the dying fire



Dusk is drawn and the Green Man's thorn is wreathed in rings of fog

Sheevra sails his boat 'til morn upon the starry bog



A lyan van o, the paly moon hath brimm'd her cusp in dew

And weeps to hear the sad, sleep tune I sing, my love, to you



Sleep, O babe, for the red bee hums the silent twilight's fall

Eeval from the grey rock comes to wrap the world in thrall

A lyan van o, my child, my joy, my love and heart's desire

The crickets sing you lullaby beside the dying fire
