Sleep now, my daughters of fire, I have removed the teeth from The flowers, in your dream there Will he a crystalline home At the bottom of the sea.
Your hair like morning dew, Glistening like constellations, I have prepared your bed With sheets of earth and a quilt Of smooth butterfly wings.
Sleep now, my daughters of fire, I will watch your dreams from here, I will be the star you follow home, You will play in a sea as blue As the day sky as fish wink at you Both in a meadow of coral meadows Riding the sea horses to visit golden fish.
A heavenly body will watch over you, Sleep now daughters of fire, The night dove has come to sing You to sleep, a celestial dream awaits You, and when you return, A father will be just as grateful.
