by José Rafael de Pombo y Rebolledo (1833 - 1912)

Arrullo
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Duerme, duerme, vida mía; 
No más juego y parlería. 
Cierra, cierra los ojitos, 
Que los ángeles benditos 
Mientras haya quien los vea 
No te vienen a arrullar.

Duerme pronto, dulce dueño, 
Que yo misma tengo empeño 
De quedarme dormidita 
Y gozar de la visita 
De esos ángeles que vienen 
A mecerte y a cantar.

Duerme, duerme vida mía, 
No se vayan a enfadar. 
Duerme, duerme, que ya vienen 
Y dormido los verás. 
Que te mecen y remecen 
Y te besan a compás.
