Kinderlied

Children's Song
I thank heaven every day for having you
For you being healthy and lively in my arms
Whatever may happen, I'm here for you and love you
Sleep well and dream sweetly, I'll sing you your song
Isaiah
Since I received you, you stole into my heart
I carried you beneath it, but whatever it may be, you commanded
It told me the greatest love was born to me
Sleep well and dream sweetly, I'll sing you your son
[refrain]
Sleep, my darling, sleep well
Sweetheart, close your eyes
I see the stars shining
But none shines as bright as you
The silver moon up there
Is only half visible today
Much seems hidden to us
Just because we don't understand
You still have so much to learn, your life has barely begun
I wanted to protect you from all the trials that are yet to come
The happiness you bring me, I couldn't have imagined in my dreams
Sleep well, my darling, and dream of it too
Naledi
You were born into a world, of which you are now a hope
It's important to preserve it, son, there's little time left
But for now, I'll care for you for a little eternity
Sleep beautifully and shine for me, because star Naledi is here
[refrain]
