Golden Promises

My little golden birdie
Won't you sing me away to sleep
My thoughts cannot be stilled
Under this diamond sky that speaks

My little golden birdie
Won't you pray with me instead
To keep this treasure ours
When you sing me off to bed

My little golden birdie
Please keep this secret ours
Until the earth has woken
And has put away its stars

My little golden birdie
The golden rays have come
They call you to your dwelling
Where your golden light is from
