Slumber My Darling by The Hound + The Fox Lyrics

Slumber, my darling, thy mother is near
Guarding thy dreams from all terror and fear
Sunlight has passed, and the twilight has gone
Slumber, my darling, the night's coming on

Sweet visions attend thy sleep
Fondest, dearest to me
While, others their revels keep
I will watch over thee

Slumber, my darling, the birds are at rest
Wandering dews by the flowers are caressed
Slumber, my darling, I'll wrap thee up warm
Pray that the angels will shield thee from harm

[Instrumental]

Slumber, my darling, till morn's blushing ray
Brings to the world the glad tidings of day
Fill the dark void, with thy dreamy delight
Slumber, thy mother, will guard thee tonight
Thy pillow shall sacred be
From all outward alarms
Thou, thou are the world to me
In thine innocent charms

Slumber, my darling, the birds are at rest
Wandering dews by the flow'rs are caressed
Slumber, my darling, I'll wrap thee up warm
Pray that the angels will shield thee from harm
