SLEEP, SLEEP BEAUTY BRIGHT

LYRICS

Sleep! sleep! beauty bright,
Dreaming o’er the joys of night; 
Sleep! sleep! in thy sleep
Little sorrows sit and weep.

Sweet Babe, in thy face
Soft desires I can trace,
Secret joys and secret smiles,
Little pretty infant wiles.

From thy cheek and from thy eye,
O’er the youthful harvests nigh.
Infant wiles and infant smiles
Heaven and Earth of peace beguiles. 

William Blake
