Leonard Cohen - Lullaby




Sleep baby sleep
The day's on the run
The wind in the trees
Is talking in tongues

If your heart is torn
I don't wonder why
If the night is long
Here's my lullaby.

Well the mouse ate the crumb
Then the cat ate the crust
Now they've fallen in love
They're talking in tongues

Sleep baby sleep
There's a morning to come
The wind in the trees
They're talking in tongues

    O que significará "The wind in the trees is talking in tongues"? Decerto não se refere à torre de Babel. A melodia serena conforta a criança que dorme sossegada, uma vez que "If your heart is torn I don't wonder why". É proibido perturbar, mas a vida é o que é.
