Ramesha and I feel like we’re living in a sort of in-between world. We can’t do our usual activities and I’m resting as much as I possibly can, but sometimes you just need to put your mind to (a little) something.
This is evidently where my childhood song memories come in.
I received my “Lullabies and Night Songs” book (mentioned in this blog post) and have thoroughly enjoyed reaquainting myself with it. And now I want to share my fully rediscovered song with you.
There are the usual disclaimers, of course (the piano’s out of tune and I’m most definitely not in full voice), but it’s a charming song and I hope you enjoy it.
Many million years ago, when dinosaurs were,
All the mattresses that people had, the floors were.
Many million years ago, sing nonny-hey down!
Children never went to bed, they simply lay down.
Go to sleep, go to sleep,
Go to sleep, my lucky baby!
