richard rodney bennett - wee willie winkie كلمات أغنية

wee willie winkie runs through the town
upstairs and downstairs in his nightgown
rapping at the window, crying at the lock
are the children in bed, for it’s now ten o’clock

hey, willie winkie, are you coming in?
the cat’s singing quiet songs to the sleeping hen
the dog’s sprawled across the floor, and doesn’t give a cheep
but here’s a wakeful laddie that will not fall asleep

anything but sleep you rogue! glowering like the moon
rattling in an iron mug with an iron spoon
rumbling, tumbling roundabout, crowing like a c_ck
squealing like i don’t know what, waking sleeping folk

hey, willie winkie, the child’s in a creel
scrambling off his mother’s knee like a very eel
tugging at the cat’s еar and spoiling all her dreams
hey, williе winkie see, here he comes!

weary is the mother that has a wakeful bairn
a wee wilful mischief that can’t be left alone
that battles every night with sleep before he’ll close an eye
but a kiss from off his rosy lips gives strength anew to me

- richard rodney bennett
