This song says it all, in light of world events today.

Composed by Roman Stepniak – Sung by Ivanka Zajac

From the New York City Lullabies/Song Bank archives

Translated by Iryna Hoshozska:

 The night is peeking through the window

It is quiet all around.

Close your eyes.

When you grow up my son

You will stand up

To defy your future

And in the desert of humanity 

You will remember your dear mother.

Tired you will cuddle up

To your mother’s heart 

And try to sleep in her arms

Like you once did. 

My little son

You are dreaming 

Your little eyes you shut

While your unknown future

Is also sleeping.
