the holy angel will keep guard near you.
(Refrain) Sleep my child, oh! sleep poor little one;
sleep little treasure, your mother remains near you.
2.The holy angel ah! comes from Paradise,
it caresses your face with its golden wings. (Refrain)

dream, my treasure, of the heavens, dream of the flower beds. (Refrain)
