From the Bavarian Highlands, Op. 27: No. 3, Lullaby

Sleep, my son, oh slumber softly
While thy mother watches o'er thee
Nothing can affright or harm thee
Sleep, oh sleep, my son

Far away, zither's play
Dancing gay, calls today
Think me play, zither's lay
Here I stay, all the day
Carpe diem, carpe diem
Flor de pli, carpe diem
Misori, misori
Oggi, oggi, oggi

Sleep, my son, oh slumber softly
While thy mother watches o'er thee
Nothing can affright or harm thee
Sleep, oh sleep, my son

Far away, zither's play
Dancing gay, calls today
Sleep, oh sleep, my son

Far away, zither's play
Think me play, me
Sleep, my son
Oh sleep, oh sleep, my son
