The songs lyrics are from the poem "A Lullaby" by Eugene Field.
The stars are twinkling in the skies,
The earth is lost in slumbers deep;
So hush, my sweet, and close thine eyes,
And let me lull thy soul to sleep.
Compose thy dimpled hands to rest,
And like a little birdling lie
Secure within thy cozy nest
Upon my loving mother breast,
And slumber to my lullaby,
So hushaby, hushaby,
Hush my sweet and close thine eyes,
And slumber to my lullaby,
So hushaby, O hushaby,
The moon is singing to a star
The little song I sing to you;
The father sun has strayed afar,
As baby's sire is straying too.
And so the loving mother moon
Sings to the little star on high;
And as she sings, her gentle tune
Is borne to me, and thus I croon
For thee, my sweet, that lullaby
Of hushaby, hushaby,
Hush my sweet and close thine eyes,
And slumber to my lullaby,
So hushaby, O hushaby,
There is a little one asleep
That does not hear his mother's song;
But angel watchers--as I weep--
Surround his grave the night-tide long.
And as I sing, my sweet, to you,
Oh, would the lullaby I sing--
The same sweet lullaby he knew
While slumb'ring on this bosom too--
Were borne to him on angel's wing!
So hushaby, hushaby,
Lullaby, Lullaby, Lullaby
So hushaby, So hushaby,
Lullaby, Hushaby, Lullaby

I am autistic and that song helps me getting quiet and calm down. I hear it at the evening.

[@amberpelton5679]

I am autistic too! I love listening to music like this. It helps me calm my spirit. Especially after feeling overwhelmed. ❤❤

[@user-hz8rr8qb5u]

Yes the song is beautiful and​ very soothing ❣️

[@donwasley2575]

For 167 years little Clara A Dulaney's grave has been alone in an area outside of Central City, Colorado in an area once called Missouri Flats. She passed away at 1 year and 5 months and 12 days. Mining life was hard on families especially the children. I've known about her grave for years. Hearing this lullaby a few months ago reminded me of her "sleeping" in the dark and cold alone and it brought tears to my eyes. Now I'm in the process of arranging with Central City to volunteer to take care of her little grave that has been neglected for so many years! Thank you, Bro. Murphy for this lullaby of love! ❤😢 I hope this inspires other people to volunteer to take care of other resting places of the pioneers who built Central City, Colorado especially the little ones! ❤❤❤❤

Very Beautiful, Thank You Dear Lord Jesus!

The stars are twinkling in the skies,
The earth is lost in slumbers deep;
So hush, my sweet, and close thine eyes,
And let me lull thy soul to sleep.
Compose thy dimpled hands to rest,
And like a little birdling lie
Secure within thy cozy nest
Upon my loving mother breast,
And slumber to my lullaby,
So hushaby, hushaby,
Hush my sweet and close thine eyes,
And slumber to my lullaby,
So hushaby, O hushaby.
The moon is singing to a star
The little song I sing to you;
The father sun has strayed afar,
As baby’s sire is straying too.
And so the loving mother moon
Sings to the little star on high;
And as she sings, her gentle tune
Is borne to me, and thus I croon
For thee, my sweet, that lullaby
Of hushaby, hushaby,
Hush my sweet and close thine eyes,
And slumber to my lullaby,
So hushaby, O hushaby.
There is a little one asleep
That does not hear his mother’s song;
But angel watchers-as I weep-
Surround his grave the night-tide long.
And as I sing, my sweet, to you,
Oh, would the lullaby I sing-
The same sweet lullaby he knew
While slumb’ring on this bosom too-
Were borne to him on angel’s wing!
So hushaby, hushaby,
Lullaby, Lullaby, Lullaby,
So hushaby, So hushaby,
Lullaby, Hushaby.

Beautiful lyrics. Beautifully sung.

I LOVE this. Thank you all for the time you put into making this happen.

[@keyplayer123]

I notice at least one singer who stays silent for a line or two of this profound text. As we go through life we find, more often than we ever expected, those who have lost children. Thank you for bringing this touching reflection.

[@bobbybernhardt2677]

The stars are twinkling in the skies,
The earth is lost in slumbers deep;
So hush, my sweet, and close thine eyes,
And let me lull thy soul to sleep.
Compose thy dimpled hands to rest,
And like a little birdling lie
Secure within thy cozy nest
Upon my loving mother breast,
And slumber to my lullaby,
So hushaby--O hushaby.
The moon is singing to a star
The little song I sing to you;
The father sun has strayed afar,
As baby's sire is straying too.
And so the loving mother moon
Sings to the little star on high;
And as she sings, her gentle tune
Is borne to me, and thus I croon
For thee, my sweet, that lullaby
Of hushaby--O hushaby.

Please enable closed captioning to your music. Voices are drowned out in music for some of us with "senior" ears.
At first this seemed like a beautiful lullaby. Not until reading the words in the description, do you realize how beautifully sad this is.

Uma canção de ninar
por Eugene Field
As estrelas estão brilhando nos céus,
A terra está perdida em sono profundo;
Então, cale-se, minha doce, e feche seus olhos,
E deixe-me embalar sua alma para dormir.
Prepare suas mãos com covinhas para descansar,
E como um passarinho deite-se
Seguro dentro de seu ninho aconchegante
Sobre o seio de minha mãe amorosa,
E adormeça com minha canção de ninar,
Então hushaby-O hushaby.
A lua está cantando para uma estrela
A pequena canção que eu canto para você;
O pai sol se afastou,
Como o pai do bebê está se afastando também.
E assim a amorosa mãe lua
Canta para a estrelinha no alto;
E enquanto ela canta, sua suave melodia
é trazida para mim, e assim eu canto
Para ti, minha doce, aquela canção de ninar
De hushaby - O hushaby.
Há um pequenino dormindo
Que não ouve a canção de sua mãe;
Mas anjos vigilantes - enquanto eu choro -
Cercam seu túmulo durante toda a noite.
E enquanto eu canto, minha querida, para você,
Oh, a canção de ninar que eu canto -
A mesma doce canção de ninar que ele conheceu
Enquanto dormia neste peito também -
Foi levada a ele na asa de um anjo!
Então hushaby--O hushaby.

Thank you so much!! ❤️

Thank you so much! I loved the music but could not understand all the words either.

I NEED the sheet music for this.

Where are the words for those who don't understand the text being sung? I found them in the description ❤ Now where's the sad story about this lullaby?💖

[@markw1706]

The stars are twinkling in the skies, the earth is lost in slumber deep;
So hush, my sweet, and close thine eyes, And let me lull thy soul to sleep.
Compose thy dimpled hands to rest, And like a little birdling lie
Secure within thy cozy nest, Upon my loving mother breast,
And slumber to my lullaby, Do hush a by hush a by,
Hush my sweet and close thine eyes, And slumber to my lullaby
So hush-a by, O hush-a-b-y
The moon is singing to a star, The little song I sing to you,
The father sun has strayed a far, As baby’s sire is straying too,
And so the loving mother moon, Sings to the little star on high;
And as she sings, her gentle tun, Is borne to me, and thus I croon.
For thee, my sweet, that lullaby
Of husg-a-by, hush-a-by. Hush my sweet and close thine eyes,
and slumber to my lullaby. So hush-a-by. O hush-a-by.
There is a little one asleep, that does not hear his mother’s song;
But angel watchers as I weep surround his grave the night-tide long.
And as I sing, my sweet, to you, Oh would the lullaby I sing,
The same sweet lullaby he knew, While slumbring on this bosom too,
Were borne to him on angel’s wing!
So hush-a by hush-a-by, Lullaby, Lullaby Lullaby
So hush-aby So hush-a by, Lullaby, Hush-a-by, Lullaby

Ryan Murphy attended Sandy Hook Elementary school growing up apparently and the rest is history. This lullaby is for those children and other children that are taken from us too soon needlessly! 😢

It is not a hymn but a lullaby for a child. It's Ryan Murphy's music set to a poem "A Lullaby" by Eugene Field.
