Icelandic Lullaby - Sissel

Sleep you now, oh child of mine

Sleep you in your manger

Sleep while winter winds will whine

Sleep you safe from danger

Sleep you when the dark ice groans

Frost and fire nearing

Sleep you when the silence moans

Sleep you with no fearing

Sleep you well and sleep you long

For life will leave you weary

Sleep you still and sleep you strong

'Til you no longer hear me

You no longer hear me
