Original text and translations
Rest, sweet nymphs, let golden sleep Charm your star brighter eyes, While my lute the watch doth keep With pleasing sympathies. Lulla, lullaby. Lulla, lullaby. Sleep sweetly, sleep sweetly, Let nothing affright ye, In calm contentments lie.
Dream, fair virgins, of delight And blest Elysian goves, While the wandring shades of night Resemble your true loves. Lulla, lullaby. Lulla, lullaby. Your kisses, your blisses, Send them by your wishes, Although they be not nigh.
Thus, dear damsels, I do give ‘Good night’, and so am gone: With your hearts’ desires long live, Still joy, and never moan. Lulla, lullaby. Lulla, lullaby. Hath pleased you and eased you, And sweet slumber seized you, And now to bed I hie.
