Go to sleep, you poor little darling, Go to sleep, dear little Pierrot! I'll sing sweet and low, And rock to and fro The crib of Pierrot, Whom we all love so. Go to sleep, you poor little darling, Go to sleep, dear little Pierrot! Mamma is below, She's kneading the dough For cakes for Pierrot, Whom we all love so! Go to sleep, you poor little darling, Go to sleep, dear little Pierrot! Papa's out to row, And when he comes--oh! A boat he will show, That he made for Pierrot! Go to sleep, you poor little darling, Go to sleep, dear little Pierrot! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A POEM FROM THE EDGE OF AMERICA by JAMES GALVIN FOR REMEMBERING HOW TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU by JAMES GALVIN MY DEATH AS A GIRL I KNEW by JAMES GALVIN SYNOPSIS OF A FAILED POEM by JAMES GALVIN TWO POEMS FROM THE WAR: 2 by ARCHIBALD MACLEISH DILIGENCE IS TO MAGIC AS PROGRESS IS TO FLIGHT by MARIANNE MOORE ABU SALAMMAMM - A SONG OF EMPIRE by EZRA POUND |
