" The end of the world is a windy place

Where the eagle builds her nest of lace

I rock you asleep in the cradle of end

Listen, baby, to the wind

The end of the world is a broken glass

Where goldfish swim in the rosy grass

I rock you asleep in the cradle of slow

Listen, baby, to the snow

The end of the world is the shadowed cowl

Of one whose eyes are like the owl's

I rock you asleep in the cradle of flight

Listen, baby, to the night "

lyrics by Judy Henske

Lullaby (from the album Farewell Aldebaran)
