Sleep my child, sleep safe and sound
don't think about the world turning around
Sleep my baby, sleep for tonight
everything will turn out to be alright

Sleep my love, sleep and dream well
don't listen to the things I'm about to tell
Dream of trees and mountains and still
don't think about people who are willing to kill

Someday you'll find out that nothing is fine
while some men in command will make you step on the front line
They don't give a damn, they don't know shame or regret
so they'll force you to kill people you've never even met
They'll make you wish you were never been born
while your friends fall around you between poppies and corn

That's why my baby, you need to sleep tight
so tomorrow you'll be ready to fight
Forget about war, death and disease
have a good rest put your mind at ease

Sleep my child while the wind still blows
today we're alive - tomorrow who knows
