[Intro: Piano arpeggios and distant strings] [Chorus: Gentle female vocals, soft and warm] Drowsy birds at even gliding, Round about their nests alight, In among the branches hiding — Dear, good night! [Verse 1: Calm, sustained tone] Silence through the forest creeping, Lullaby the river sighs; In the garden flowers sleeping — Shut your eyes! [Chorus: Voice slightly clearer, instrumentation remains gentle] Drowsy birds at even gliding, Round about their nests alight, In among the branches hiding — Dear, good night! [Verse 2: Dreamy atmosphere] Glides the swan among the rushes To its rest where moon light gleams, And the angels whisper hushes — Peaceful dreams! [Chorus: Soft return to the main theme] Drowsy birds at even gliding, Round about their nests alight, In among the branches hiding — Dear, good night! [Verse 3: Builds subtly with orchestral pads] O'er the sky stars without number, On the earth a silver light; All is harmony and slumber — Dear, good night! [Outro: Strings and piano fade out with subtle wind chimes effect]
