Cradle Song by Jens Klimek — Lyrics

Golden slumbers kiss your eyes, Smiles awake you when you rise; Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry, And I will sing a lullaby, Rock them, rock them, lullaby.

About Cradle Song

This gentle SATB setting captures the tender sentiment of a lullaby, as expressed in its English text. The words paint a scene of peaceful slumber, urging children to sleep with the promise of a comforting song. The composer evokes a sense of calm and security, mirroring the lyrics' affectionate tone. The part-song form allows for rich harmonies to support the sweet melody, creating an atmosphere of maternal or paternal devotion. It is ideal for occasions where a moment of tenderness and warmth is desired, offering a serene musical experience for both singers and listeners.
