Now that I have stopped crying over my keyboard I can type again.

I posted two really beautiful Welsh lullabies in the birth announcement thread.


Ar Hyd Y Nos/All Through the Night

Suo Gân

They are both beautiful blessings on Brendan and they both mention angels watching over him so Patrick is there in both songs too.

All Through The Night

Sleep, my child, and peace attend thee
All through the night
Guardian angels God will send thee
All through the night
Soft the drowsy hours are creeping
Hill and dale in slumber steeping
I my loving vigil keeping
All through the night.

from Suo Gân:

Why have you just started smiling,
Smiling gently in your heart?
Could it be some angels smiling
Down on you, in smiling rest,
With you smiling back and sleeping,
Slumb'ring sweetly on my breast?

and

Smile in peace upon my bosom
On the distant angels true.

Love and light and candles for you all.
