Johannes Brahms - Brahms Lullaby Lyrics

Lyrics

Lullaby and good night
In the sky stars are bright
Around your head flowers gay
Set your slumbers till day
Lullaby and good night
In the sky stars are bright
Around your head flowers gay
Set your slumbers till day
Close your eyes now and rest
May these hours be blessed
Close your eyes now and rest
May these hours be blessed
Bonne nuit cher enfant
Dans tes langes blanches
Repose joyeux en r?vant des cieux
Quand le jour reviendra
Tu te r?veilleras
Quand le jour reviendra
Tu te r?veilleras
Lullaby and good night
In the sky stars are bright
Around your head flowers gay
Set your slumbers till day
