''Italicised'' text indicates lines repeated in the song but not in the original poem. Sea Slumber Song Sea-birds are asleep, The world forgets to weep, Sea murmurs her soft slumber-song On the shadowy sand Of this elfin land; "I, the Mother mild, Hush thee, O my child, Forget the voices wild! ''Hush thee, O my child, Hush thee'' Isles in elfin light Dream, the rocks and caves, Lull’d by whispering waves, Veil their marbles ''Veil their marbles bright'', Foam glimmers faintly white Upon the shelly sand Of this elfin land; Sea-sound, like violins, To slumber woos and wins, I murmur my soft slumber-song, ''My slumber-song'', Leave woes, and wails, and sins, Ocean’s shadowy might Breathes good-night, Good-night… ''Leave woes, and wails, and sins,'' ''Good-night… Good-night…'' ''Good-night…'' ''Good-night…'' ''Good-night… Good-night…''" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sea Slumber Song」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
