The night has come now
夜幕笼罩
The sun has gone to rest
太阳歇脚
All birds stop singing, hiding in their nest
鸟儿停止歌唱，都已归巢
The stars are sparkling in the deeply sky
星星闪耀，夜色妖娆
For the man in the moon hill can hear the tide inside
月桂中的神明，聆听着那汐潮
Hush now baby, it’s time to go to sleep
安静吧宝贝，是时候入睡
Mummy and Daddy have counted all the sheep

Hush now baby, don’t you cry

Mummy and Daddy are always by your side

The playground to still now
操场静谧
Shadows dance around
光影迷离
Raindrops are falling softly to the ground
雨滴亲吻地面，温柔掉落泥里
Tomorrow’s waiting for some that in her hand
明天在等待某君，听从她的指令
More time to play and draw pictures in the sand
明天继续玩耍，涂鸦写在沙粒
Hush now baby, it’s time to go to sleep
安静吧宝贝，是时候入睡
Mummy and Daddy have counted all the sheep
爸爸和妈妈，绵羊都数累
Hush now baby, don’t you cry
安静吧宝贝，别涌出泪水
Mummy and Daddy are always by your side
爸爸和妈妈，宠溺你一万岁～

Baby says, like little birdie,
Let me rise and fly away.
宝宝在像小鸟那样说，让我起来飞走吧。
Baby, sleep a little longer,

Baby too shall fly away
是的，如果小宝宝再多睡会，必然也会像鸟儿一样展翅高飞的。 |
