The Magic Lullaby - Eurielle

Now the sun is sleeping

And the moon shines overhead

Come magic creatures creeping

Around your little bed

But be not afraid my child

For you are their creator

Out of your dreams they’re styled

As beautiful as their maker

They dance about on silent feet

As lightly as a feather

In rhythm with the unheard beat

Then bowing all together

And all the while I watch you

Amazed by your perfection

No length I wouldn’t go to

To give you my protection

I wonder if you know

How much you mean to me?

This love that through me flows

Is deeper than the sea

I soar every time you smile

And worry whenever you cry

So here I shall stay awhile

Just to be by your side

But all too soon the dawn arrives

And hence the spell is breaking

Your creature friends must say goodbye

Before you are awaking

One final dance and then they’re gone

Beyond this world once more

The echo of their parting song

Now fades out through the door

Yet in their wake, birds start to sing

To ease you from sleep

So delay no more my young sweetling

The world is at your feet
