Hush now, little wave, drift and sway, Moonlight paints the silver bay. Close your eyes, the tide is near, The ocean hums so you won’t fear. Sleep where the coral gardens glow, Where gentle currents curl and flow. The whales will sing your name tonight, Low and soft in drifting light. Hush now, little pearl, rest your head, Stars are shining overhead. Even storms must bow and cease, When sea and sky make quiet peace. If the dark feels wide and deep, The lantern fish will guard your sleep. And I will stay till morning’s gleam, Anchored close within your dream. Drift now, little wave, drift and roam, Every tide will bring you home. No matter where the waters part, The sea keeps you within its heart. Sleep, my love… the tide is slow… In and out… and in we go…
