Lullaby Lyrics By Phil Coulter and Bill Martin, song by Aileach  on Emi records Arion LP.1976. This is a lovely sad song about trying to rear a young child in the troubled times in Ireland.It could be sung in so many other Countries under foreign rule today 2012 as well. [ Irish Folk ]

A Child speaks theese few words in his night Prayers. And God Bless my brothers & sistersMum & Dad & Me.And make me a good boy Amen, O God.

1

Go to sleep my little soldier

I've heard you say your Prayers

And I listened as you told him

Your troubles and your cares.

Dont you worry about the sorrow

You've seen in daddies eyes

Go to sleep until tomorrow

And I'll sing this Lullaby

(Chorus)

Hush Hush abye baby of mine

Hush and tomorrow will

All turn out fine.

2

First you told him of the soldiers

That you shout at

Every day

Saying please help me

Not to hate them

But I wish they'd go away,

Then you asked him to forgive them

Though you didn't quite know  why

Sleep in peace until tomorrow

And I'll sing this Lullaby.

(Chorus as above)

3

Then you prayed for all the people

Who'd been burned

Or who'd been shot down

Asking when will it be over

when will peace come to our town,

Sad'nd  I wish I knew the answers

Like I knew the reasons why

So sleep on until tomorrow

While I sing this Lullaby.

(Chorus as above)

4

Dream about a new tomorrow

When we finally count the cost

Of the words allready spoken

Of the lives allready lost,

When you pretend you live together

Though we dont see eye to eye

Dream about that new tomorrow

As I sing this Lullaby,

Chorus

Hush hush abye baby of mine

Hush cause tomorrow

The Sun always shines

Hush hush abye baby of mine

Hush and tomorrow will all

Turn out fine.
