Sleep little sister, sleep
Music by Rauli Somerjoki
Lyrics by Kirsti Hartikainen
Translation by R.-T.V.
Why don't you sleep, little sister?
The night is long and quiet.
Why don't you sleep, little sister?
Why do you only look away?
The guys on TV have become tired,
and all the cars have ridden away,
only the stars twinkle above the city.
Fall asleep, you too.
Open up your eyes again,
there is a dog yelping somewhere,
the Moon is moving evenly
with the winds of the night.
Sleep, oh sleep little sister,
the soil is absorbing the rain,
awake and hear it, in the land of dreams.
:,:The tiny mouth is smiling,
a night butterfly lands on your forehead,
no, it won't hurt you,
it will only protect your sleep....:,:
Are you scared by the voice of the night,
you can swim like a little goldfish,
and your day ends ...
on the bottom of the sea.
