Amazing Blondel - Lincolnshire Lullaby lyrics

Gladwin Song of lovebir, speed soon to your window. Oh lady be mine tonight Verses of sweet words, speak soft by your pillow. To woo you while sun slips from sight Chorus: Evening descending, day's at an ending The ploughboy lays down his share Lincoln sleeps still, from valley to hill, The silence of night is there. May gardens of roses, crimsoned fragrance expounding Adorn your dreamfields tonight. And as day closes, waning with twilight surrounding Then let our love's eager flame burn bright Chorus While woodland's sleeping No-one is peeping Just moonbeams leaping Tonight Thus falls the darkness, watching the world lie yawning, It turns the day safe tonight. So sleep sound my darling, slumber on till the morning Brings forth her blessed blanket of light. Chorus
