My precious one, my tiny one,
Lay down your pretty head.
My dearest one, my sleepy one,
It's time to go to bed.

My precious one, my darling one,
Don't let your lashes weep.
My cherished one, my weary one.
It's time to go to sleep.

Just bow your head
And give your cares to me,
Just close your eyes
And fall into the sweetest dream.
Cos in my loving arms
You're safe as you will ever be,
So hush my dear and sleep.

And in your dreams,
You'll ride on angels' wings.
Dance with the stars,
And touch the face of God.
And if you should awake...

My precious one, my tiny one,
I'll kiss your little cheek.
And underneath the smiling moon,
I'll sing you back to sleep.
