The Gartan Mothers Lullaby

C  F  C

                                Am
Sleep, oh babe, for the red bee hums
    F                 C
The silent twilight's fall
G                  C         Em
Aoibheall from the grey rock comes
   Am       Em       F
To wrap the world in thrall
  C                        Em
A leanbhín ó, my child, my joy
   Am       Em        F
My love and heart's desire
    Dm       C7       Am   F
The crickets sing you lullaby
                 C
Beside the dying fire

                                  Am
Dusk is drawn and the Green Man's thorn
   F                    C
Is wreathed in rings of fog
G                 C         Em
Siabhra sails his boat 'til morn
 Am      Em     F
Upon the starry bog
  C                    Em
A leanbhín ó, the paly moon
     Am          Em      F
Hath brimmed her cusp in dew
    Dm       C7       Am        F
And weeps to hear the sad sleep-tune
                    C    F  C  F
I sing, my love, to you

C                               Am
Sleep, oh babe, for the red bee hums
    F                 C
The silent twilight's fall
G                  C         Em
Aoibheall from the grey rock comes
   Am       Em       F
To wrap the world in thrall
  C                        Em
A leanbhín ó, my child, my joy
   Am       Em        F
My love and heart's desire
    Dm       C7       Am   F
The crickets sing you lullaby
                 C     F   C
Beside the dying fire
