The Ilam Lullaby

Hush a bye lu, my tiny darling
 Hush baby sleep while the moon rules the sky
 Your Daddy's the finest, a Prince of all Mercia
 The stars will guide him back to us by and by
 Hush for your Mammy, so far from her homeland
 Soft the trees sway to the North wind's sad song
 Safe under Earendel, brightest of angels
 Close those eyes quiet, and sleep the night long
 Hush a bye lu, my tiny darling
 Hush baby sleep while the moon rules the sky
 Your Daddy's the finest, a Prince of all Mercia
 The stars will guide him back to us by and by
 Silently sleep let no noise wake the mara
 Hush now my dear one, the wolves prowl so near
 Snug in nights blanket we'll join the forest slumber
 Hush so the shadows of darkness won't hear
 Hush a bye lu, my tiny darling
 Hush baby sleep while the moon rules the sky
 Your Daddy's the finest, a Prince of all Mercia
 The stars will guide him back to us by and by
