For a lifetime

My child, sway in the wind,

on your way to sleep.

Cradle swing, my child,

where are you going?

In your mother’s lap,

in your father’s arms,

love it is that swings you,

my child.

 

My child, sway in the wind,

lots of laughs on your journey.

Swing, you fly high beyond

the sky-blue,

(where are you going?)

love it is that swings you,

my child.

 

My child, sway in the wind,

with adult steps thou goest.

You have found love,

someone with whom

to share your life,

(where are you going?)

love is that swings you,

my child.

 

My child, sway in the wind,

in those days of olden age.

You have lived, laughed and wept,

your destination finally found,

a peaceful sleep is that swings you,

my child.

 

My child, sway in the wind,

on your way to sleep.

Cradle swing, my child,

where are you going?

In God’s palm,

love it is that swings you,

my child.

Thank you for your kind words. I do drink coffee, a lot I admit. =) Maybe it is fuel of my words, I have not thought about it previously. =D
