Asya's Lullaby
Language: English
There are many sleepy little birds,
Sleeply little birds, sleepy little birds.
So go to sleep, my little one.
Come down, sleepy little birds, and sleep on her soft eyes.
That she may sleep the lifelong day,
That she may sleep the lifelong night.

Asya's Wiegenlied
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the English
Da sind viele schläfrige kleine Vöglein,
kleine Vöglein, kleine Vöglein,
so schlaf auch du ein, kleiner Liebling.
Kommt herab, ihr schläfrigen kleinen Vöglein,
und schlaft auf ihren weichen Äuglein!
Damit sie gut schlafen mögen den lebenslangen Tag, die lebenslange Nacht.
