Dearest, sleep sound, The stream's ice-bound, The stream's ice-bound. Softly the north wind moans, Drowsy, sleepily, falls the snow, Falls the snow o'er the dark pinecones. Dearest, sleep sound, sleep sound. Dearest, sleep sound, Misty dreamland's moonlit strand Awaits the coming guest. The pine logs smoulder As soft on my shoulder A flaxen head sinks to rest, to rest. Dearest, sleep sound, sleep sound.
