لالایی برای فرزند به انگلیسی

Look, my darling, night has come at last
Darkness fills your room
In its sweet cocoon
Sleep, my darling, eyes are closing fast
Breathing slow
Dreams aglow

Magic whispers calm you now
Gentle fingers soothe your brow
Worries Mom will not allow

Sleep, my baby, curl your tiny hands
Sleep, my baby, dream of fairy lands

Magic whispers calm you now
Gentle fingers soothe your brow
Worries Mom will not allow
Sleep...

Sleep, my baby, night has come at last
Sleep, my baby, day has finally passed
Close your eyes
And when you rise
The night will dream of you

Dirty Socks

My socks are very dirty,
so I washed them in the lake.
It wasn’t long before I knew
I’d made a big mistake.
The water changed from clear to mud.
Then fumes began to rise.
And soon a cloud of air pollution
covered up the skies.

When bullfrogs started croaking
and ducks began to quack,
some campers started chanting,
“We want our clean lake back.”

I’ve got a pile of dirty socks.
I’m in an awful bind.
I guess I’ll have to bury them.
I hope the worms won’t mind.
