Children's poetry Song Lyrics

Earth

In my own defence .. most of these lyrics are child-friendly: this is my take on earth and Human Evolution.. from a cell to the stars in one short song.. With the music, this is really lovely. Can’t wait to hear the children sing it.

Movement 4: Earth

 

Solo:   Sleep little one

Sleep for your mother

Rocked in the water

of your

Salty sea ..

Sleep little one..

Sleep little cell

Choir:

Sleep, sleep, sleep …

 

Solo:

Swim little one

Swim for your mother

Roll in the surges

of crashing waves

Swim, little one,

Swim little fish

Choir:

Swim, swim, swim

 

Solo:

Hop, little one

Hop for your mother

Up sliding beaches 

through 

tangling shore

Hop little one

Hop little frog

Choir:

Hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop

 

Solo:

Run little one

Run for your mother

Under branches

Over grass

Run little one

Run clever ape

Choir:

Run . Run… 

 

Solo:

Fly little one

Fly for your mother 

From mother earth

To the furthest sky

Fly little one,

Fly lovely bird

Chorus:

Fly, fly ,fly , fly, fly
