| Sleep well sweet child
|
| I am here to watch your dreams
|
| Don’t be afraid
|
| The moon above just gleams for you
|
| Don’t mind the wolf, he is not near
|
| He’s a friend of the night, my dear
|
| Hush don’t you cry, he is not near
|
| We are friends of the night, my dear
|
| And I run and I hide in the dark
|
| Threatened by each distant bark
|
| Sleep little love, for heaven’s sake
|
| It’s not your fault; |
| it’s your cruel, ruthless fate
|
| It’s not your fault; |
| it’s your cruel, ruthless fate
|
| Prophecy of the old age
|
| Still sounding out my son’s decline
|
| He is the one to free us from the tyrant
|
| So I flee from bloodhounds eager to kill
|
| (And I sing) / (Sleep well sweet child)
|
| I am here to watch your dreams
|
| Don’t be afraid
|
| The moon above just gleams for you
|
| Don’t mind the wolf, he is not near
|
| He’s a friend of the night, my dear
|
| Hush don’t you cry, he is not near
|
| We are friends of the night, my dear
|
| They shall not get my loving child
|
| As long as I am by his side
|
| I am the shadow runner in time
|
| Here and there, never to find
|
| Here and there, never to find
|
| And I run and I hide in the dark
|
| Threatened by each distant bark
|
| Sleep little love, for heaven’s sake
|
| Sleep for I’m here to fulfil your fate
|
| Sleep for I’m here to fulfil your fate |
