The Dubliners - Gartan Mother's Lullaby
Gartan Mother's Lullaby
Sleep, oh babe, for the red bee hums
The silent twilight falls
Evil from the Grey Rock comes
To wrap the world in thrall
A leabhan o, my child, my joy
My own, my heart's desire
The crickets sing you a lullaby
Beside the dying fire
Dusk is drawn and the Green Man's horn
Is wreathed in rings of fog
Sheevra sails his boat till morn
Upon the starry bog
A leanbhan o, the paly moon
Hath brmimed her cusp in dew
And weeps to hear the sad sleep tune I sing,
O love, to you
Sleep, oh babe, for the red bee hums
The silent twilight falls
Evil from the Grey Rock comes
To wrap the world in thrall
A leabhan o, my child, my joy
My own, my heart's desire
The crickets sing you a lullaby
Beside the dying fire
Dusk is drawn and the Green Man's horn
Is wreathed in rings of fog
Sheevra sails his boat till morn
Upon the starry bog
A leanbhan o, the paly moon
Hath brmimed her cusp in dew
And weeps to hear the sad sleep tune I sing,
O love, to you
