Sleep well, my princess, peacefully, serene.
Let not anything disturb thy dreams.
By light of the moon, by light of the stars,
Sleep well, my princess, and peacefully dream.

In morning be rested so when opening thine eyes,
A new day shall dawn with wondrous surprise.
By light of the sun in skies stretched far,
The next day brings new joys to be prized.

But sleep well now, my princess, in the quiet of night.
Let not anything thing bring to you fright.
By the sun’s rising, oh beautiful star,
A new day will be waiting for your delight.
