GUEST,Annabelle Versions: Sleep Little Prince (63* d) RE: Help: Sleep Little Prince 04 Nov 21


I don't think it would be a mouthful for me. I could make it sound beautiful. And no, I don't have to sound like an opera star to have a beautiful voice! I even have a sweet version I made up in English, which I'm sure you might say would scan beautifully with the melody.


Sleep, little princess, lie still.
The lambs are at rest on the hill.
Crickets will sing you a song.
Rock you to sleep all night long.
The nightingales whistle their tune.
And shine with the bright silvery moon.
I love you and I always will.
Sleep, little princess, lie still.
Lie still, lie still!

And here's the version in German that I would sing.



Schlafe, prinzesschen, schlaf ein.
Es ruhn schäfchen und vögelein.
Garten und wiese verstummt.
Auch nicht ein bienchen mehr summt.
Luna mit silbernem Schein.
Gucket zum Fenster herein
Schlafe beim silbernem Schein
Schlafe, prinzesschen, schlaf ein!
Schlaf ein, schlaf ein!



Does that look and sound right to you?
