Sleep my friend now I'll watch o'er you

The moon is here and the stars adore you

Close your eyes and you'll sleep just fine

Said my guardian angel once upon a time


Chorus

Sho Heen Sho lo, lu la lo, lu la lo

Sho Heen Sho lo, lu la lo, lu la lo


Why has my angel gone from me

The moon I fear and the stars fall on me

I won't close my eyes 'till the morning light

Oh bring on the sun I cannot rest tonight


Sleep my friend oh I'll watch o'er you

The moon is here and the stars adore you

Close your eyes and sleep tonight

Oh my blessed angel, here again, goodnight
