Sleep well sweet child I am here to watch your dreams Don't be afraid, The 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, is not near We are friends of the night, my dear
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 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 the tyrant So I flee from bloodhounds eager to kill
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 near We are friends of the night, my dear
They shall not get my loving child long as I am by his side I am the shadow runner in time Here and there, never 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 sake Sleep for I'm here to fulfil your fate Sleep for I'm here to fulfil your fate
