All through the night.

Angels watching, e’er around thee,

Midnight slumber close surround thee,

Soft the drowsy hours are creeping,
Hill and vale in slumber sleeping
I my loved ones’ watch am keeping,

While the weary world is sleeping,
All through the night
O’er thy spirit gently stealing,
Visions of delight revealing
Breathes a pure and holy feeling,
All through the night.

Though I roam a minstrel lonely
All through the night
My true harp shall praise sing only
All through the night
Love’s young dream, alas, is over
Yet my strains of love shall hover
Near the presence of my lover
All through the night

Hark, a solemn bell is ringing
Clear through the night

Home through the night
Earthly dust from off the shaken
Soul immortal shalt thou awaken
With thy last dim journey taken
Home through the night

Well, I hate to leave you, baby
Don’t mean, maybe because I love you so
Goodnight sweetheart, well, it’s time to go
Goodnight sweetheart, well, it’s time to go

Distant moon, so big and bright
Softest silver glowing through the night
High atop, the mountain of gold
Sun unseen, the world is cold
Here I wait, and here I stand
Early morning northern hour hand
Studying, in solitude
Looking for a hidden clue
I wish to see this world through my own eyes
To calm the elders and silence their cries
Because of you, I now gaze up and sing
The lullaby of the moon
Found at last, I steal away
Moving faster through the silent shade
Sea of stars, like flowers bloom
Looking for the hidden tomb
Here I found the crescent blade
Forged by Rakkor, surely lunar made
Shining down, upon the earth
Now they’ll see, I’ll prove my worth
I wish to see this world through my own eyes
To calm the elders and silence their cries
Because of you, I now gaze up and sing
The lullaby of the moon
Condemned me to death
With my last breath
Sorrow and anger
Fill my head
Distant moon, so big and bright
Softest silver glowing through the night
High atop, the mountain of gold
Sun unseen, the world is cold
Now I know my chosen path
Higher calling they will know my wrath
Raise my relic blade
I will not be swayed
With the might of the moon by my side

And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops

Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why, can’t I?

The rivers running by
The sunset and the morning

The cold wind in the winter
The pleasant summer sun
The ripe fruits in the garden

And I hear your laugh like a serenade

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I’m never, never giving you up

I slip in bed when you’re asleep
To hold you close and feel your breath on me
Tomorrow there’ll be so much to do
So tonight I’ll drift in a dream with you

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I’m never, never giving you up

As you wander through this troubled world
In search of all things beautiful
You can close your eyes when you’re miles away
And hear my voice like a serenade

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I’m never, never giving you up

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I’m never, never giving you up
Is forever enough
Cause I’m never, never giving you up

So I hung my head and I cried.

Isn’t she pretty?
Truly the Angel’s best

I can’t believe what God has done
Through us He’s given life to one
But isn’t she lovely made from love?
Isn’t she…

Who’s to say
What’s impossible
Well they forgot
This world keeps spinning
And with each new day
I can feel a change in everything
And as the surface breaks reflections fade
But in some ways they remain the same
And as my mind begins to spread its wings
There’s no stopping curiosity
I want to turn the whole thing upside down
I’ll find the things they say just can’t be found
I’ll share this love I find with everyone
We’ll sing and dance to Mother Nature’s songs
I don’t want this feeling to go away
Who’s to say
I can’t do everything
Well I can try
And as I roll along I begin to find
Things aren’t always just what they seem
I want to turn the whole thing upside down
I’ll find the things they say just can’t be found
I’ll share this love I find with everyone
We’ll sing…

What would I do without your smart mouth
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
Got my head spinning, no kidding, I can’t pin you down
What’s going on in that beautiful mind
I’m on your magical mystery ride
And I’m so dizzy, don’t know what hit me, but I’ll be alright
My head’s underwater
But I’m breathing fine
You’re crazy and I’m out of my mind
‘Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I’m winning
‘Cause I give you all, all of me
And you give me all, all of you
How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you’re crying you’re beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I’m around through every mood
You’re my…

25. Goodnight My Angel

This song is from the album “River Of Dreams”, written by Billy Joel. Joel wrote this as a lullaby for his 7-year-old daughter Alexa Ray.

Goodnight my angel, time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you’ve been asking me
I think you know what I’ve been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
Then you should always know
Wherever you may go, no matter where you are
I never will be far away
Goodnight my angel, now it’s time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
When we went sailing on an emerald bay
And like a boat out on the ocean
I’m rocking you to sleep
The water’s dark and deep, inside this ancient heart
You’ll always be a part of me
Goodnight my angel, now it’s time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child may cry, and if you sing this lullaby
Then in your heart there will always be a part of me
Someday we’ll all be gone
But lullabies go on and on
They never die
That’s how you and I will be

The Cockroach
Canción tradicional
Traditional Song

(Coro)

La cucaracha, la cucaracha,
ya no puede caminar
porque no tiene,
porque le falta
las dos patitas de atrás.

Dicen que la cucaracha
Es un animal pequeño
Y cuando entra en una casa
Se tiene que quedar dueño.

(Coro)

Cuando uno quiere a una
Y esta una no lo quiere,
Es lo mismo que si un calvo
En la calle encuentra un peine

(Coro)

Mi vecina de ahí enfrente
Se llamaba Doña Clara,
Y si no se hubiera muerto
Aún así se llamara.

(Coro)

Cuando Rita se bañaba
En el río San Fernando
Le picó la cucaracha
Pero ella siguió nadando.

(Coro)

English Version

The cockroach, cockroach,
Can’t walk anymore
Because it doesn’t have,
Because it’s missing
Two little back legs.

People they say the cockroach
Is a very small animal
And when it gets into a house,
It’ll soon be the master of it all.

(Chorus)

When a boy loves a girl
And she doesn’t love him back
It’s the same as if a bald man
Finds a comb on the railroad track*.

(Chorus)

My neighbor across the street
Had Lady Claire as her name
And if she hadn’t died
She still would be called the same.

(Chorus)

When Rita was bathing
In the San Fernando River
The cockroach stung her
But she kept on swimming.

That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see

And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
In a believer’s ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds
And drives away his fear

Must Jesus bear the cross alone
And all the world go free?
No, there’s a cross for everyone
And there’s a cross for me

Of long-lost lullabies
Oh won’t you come with me
Where the moon is made of gold
And in the morning sun
We’ll be sailing
Oh won’t you come with me
Where the ocean meets the sky
And as the clouds roll by
We’ll sing the song of the sea
I had a dream last night
And heard the sweetest sound
I saw a great white light
And dancers in the round
Castles in the sand
Cradles in the trees
Don’t cry, I’ll see you by and by
Oh won’t you come with me
Where the moon is made of gold
And in the morning sun
We’ll be sailing
Oh won’t you come with me
Where the ocean meets the sky
And as the clouds roll by
We’ll sing the song of the sea
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling
Oh won’t you come with me
Where the moon is made of gold
And in the morning sun
We’ll be sailing free
Oh won’t you come with me
Where the ocean meets the sky
And as the clouds roll by
We’ll sing the song of the sea

Golden Slumbers” is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1969 album Abbey. This perfect Lullaby Song seems to be a constellation of stars full of kisses, cuddles, hugs, and love for your baby. Sing this to the baby when he refuses to sleep or is into tears for some reason unknown.

Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,
Smiles await you when you rise.
Sleep,
Pretty baby,
Do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.

Cares you know not,
Therefore sleep,
While over you a watch I’ll keep.
Sleep,
Pretty darling,
Do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.

34. Chopin’s Nocturne

Chopin’s Nocturne is a lullaby to be played on the piano. Nocturne refers to a musical composition that is inspired by the night. Chopin’s Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2 is considered an ultimate lullaby for babies to fall asleep fast.

Good night, sleep tight, it’s been a very busy day
And now it’s time to rest your head, softly on your pillow
Good night, sleep tight, you’ve been as good as gold all day,
And now it’s time to dream your dreams sweetly on your pillow.

35. Clementine

In a cavern, in a canyon
Excavating for a mine
Lived a miner, forty-niner
And his daughter, Clementine

Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine

Light she was and like a fairy
And her shoes were number nine
Herring boxes without topses
Sandals were for Clementine

Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine

Drove she ducklings to the water
Every morning just at nine
Hit her foot against a splinter
Fell into the foaming brine

Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine

Ruby lips above the water
Blowing bubbles soft and fine
But alas, I was no swimmer
So I lost my Clementine

Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine

Then the miner, forty-niner
Soon began to peak and pine
Thought he oughta join his daughter
Now he’s with his Clementine

Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine

There’s a churchyard on the hillside
Where the flowers grow and twine
There grow roses, ‘mongst the posies
Fertilized by Clementine

Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine

In my dreams she still doth haunt me
Robed in garlands soaked in brine
Though in life I used to hug her
Now she’s dead, I draw the line

Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine

Now you scouts may learn the moral
Of this little tale of mine
Artificial respiration
Would have saved my Clementine

Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine

How I missed her, how I missed her
How I missed my Clementine
Till I kissed her little sister
And forgot my Clementine

Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine
