- Sing me to sleep - Partition musicale
- Sing me to sleep, the shadows fall,
Let me forget the world and all,
Tired is my heart, the day is long,
Would it were come to even song,
Sing me to sleep, your hand in mine,
Our fingers as in prayer entwine,
Only your voice love, let me hear,
Singing to tell me your are near.
Love, I am lonely,
Years are so long,
I want you only,
You and your song.
Dark is life's shore,love,
Night is so deep,
Leave me no more love,
Sing me to sleep.
Sing me to sleep, love, you alone,
Seem to be left me for mine own,
Haply my heart will know no pain,
When I awake from sleep again,
Sing me to sleep and let me rest,
Of all the world I love you best,
Nothing is faithful, nothing true,
In Heav'n or earth, but God and you.
Love, I am lonely,
Years are so long,
I want you only,
You and your song,
Dark is life's shore, love,
Night is so deep,
Leave me no more love,
Sing me to sleep.

« Sing me to sleep » ou « Fais-moi rêver » est une chanson d'amour où une jeune femme demande à son tendre aimé une chanson pour pouvoir rêver toute la nuit. L'adaptation par Bamforth & Co transporte le récit au temps des chevaliers courtois. Ainsi ces onze vues représentent un jeune homme vêtu comme un prince. Il chante une chanson à sa douce, elle aussi vêtue en princesse.
