Words

The Christ Child Lullaby

My darling love and treasure, you,
My wealth and joy, my pleasure, you,
My gorgeous handsome baby, you,
I humbly bow to you.
I love your eyes that gently see,
I love your sweet humility,
In hope and love and charity,
You show us how to be.

Traditional

Translated from the Gaelic by Sheena Phillips & Peter Hill
