by Corrado D'Errico (1902 - 1941)

Ninna‑nanna di S. Uliva
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  ENG
Gesù ti guarda, Gesù ti culla,
Dormi sereno, figlio di Re.
Splendono gli astri sulla tua culla.
Sia dolce il sonno, Iddio è con te,
Tra lotte ardenti, guerre e tornei
Un gran Monarca ti generò.
Ei t'ha affidato ai voti miei,
Donna ferita, ti veglierò;
Gesù ti guarda, Gesù ti culla...
