Lullaby

Ëþáà Òèõîìèðîâà
Sun is hiding under ground,
There is no more daily sound,
Stars are shining, big and bright.
Here comes the sleepless night.

Here comes the biggest fear,
One step closer, almost here.
Everything is dark and grey,
There’s nothing else to say.

There’s no more place to hide,
Swallow bravery and pride,
Look outside - the darkest hour,
There is no more human power.

There’s the sound of gnashing teeth,
Monster’s hiding underneath.
He is looking for a soul,
You are under his control.

Do not fear, little boy,
Monster also wants some joy.
Teeth are sharp and claws are long,
There’s no more right or wrong.

There is no more false belief,
Only sorrow, pain and grief.
Night will pass, my little one,
But the horror just begun.
