This song is a common Franco lullaby that the ladies all remember from their childhood. They claim that their parents and grandparents sung it to them and they have continued to sing it to their children as well.<\/p>\n\n

Lyrics: Ferme tes jolis yeux<\/strong><\/p>\n

French :<\/strong>
\nFerme tes jolis yeux
\nCar les heures sont br\u00e8ves
\nAu pays merveilleux
\nAu beau pays du r\u00eave
\nFerme tes jolis yeux
\nCar tout n’est que mensonge
\nLe bonheur n’est qu’un songe
\nFerme tes jolis yeux<\/p>\n

Dans son petit lit blanc et rose
\nC\u00e2line jase en souriant
\nElle babille mille choses
\nA sa ch\u00e8re et bonne maman
\nMais, chut, il faut dormir bien vite
\nNous avons assez bavard\u00e9
\nFaites dodo ch\u00e8re petite
\nO\u00f9 petit p\u00e8re va gronder
\nEt tout en ber\u00e7ant la gamine
\nSa m\u00e8re lui chante c\u00e2line<\/p>\n

Ferme tes jolis yeux
\nCar les heures sont br\u00e8ves
\nAu pays merveilleux
\nAu beau pays du r\u00eave
\nFerme tes jolis yeux
\nCar tout n’est que mensonge
\nLe bonheur n’est qu’un songe
\nFerme tes jolis yeux<\/p>\n

English:<\/strong>
\nClose your pretty eyes
\nBecause our hours are brief
\nIn this enchanted land
\nIn the beautiful land of dreams
\nClose your pretty eyes
\nBecause all is but a lie
\nHappiness is only an illusion
\nClose pretty your eyes<\/p>\n

In her small white and pink bed
\nThe cuddly baby coos, smiling
\nShe babbles a thousand things
\nTo her dear, sweet mother
\nBut, shh, you need to fall sleep quickly
\nWe\u2019ve chattered enough
\nGo to sleep dear little one
\nOr Daddy will scold you
\nAnd while rocking the girl
\nHer mother sings to her tenderly<\/p>\n

Close your pretty eyes
\nBecause the hours are brief
\nIn this wonderful land
\nIn the beautiful land of dreams
\nClose your pretty eyes
\nBecause everything is only a lie
\nHappiness is only a dream
\nClose pretty your eyes<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
