Hush Hush

[00:38.59] Hush, hush, time to be sleepin'
[00:43.61] Hush, hush, dreams come a-creepin'
[00:48.11] Dreams of peace and of freedom
[00:52.42] So smile in your sleep, bonny baby
[00:57.59] Once, our valleys were ringin'
[01:01.86] With sounds of our children singin'
[01:06.52] But now, sheep bleat 'til the evenin'
[01:11.34] And shielings lied empty and broken
[01:16.36] Hush, hush, time to be sleepin'
[01:21.10] Hush, hush, dreams come a-creepin'
[01:25.91] Dreams of peace and of freedom
[01:30.24] So smile in your sleep, bonny baby
[01:35.30] Oh, we stood with heads bowed in prayer
[01:39.84] While Factors burnt our cottages bare
[01:44.42] The flames licked the clear mountain air
[01:49.37] And many were dead by the mornin'
[01:54.11] Hush, hush, time to be sleepin'
[01:58.93] Hush, hush, dreams come a-creepin'
[02:03.72] Dreams of peace and of freedom
[02:08.23] So smile in your sleep, bonny baby
[02:13.61] Where was our fears Highland mettle?
[02:17.95] Our men, once so fearless in battle
[02:22.48] Now stand, cowed, huddled like cattle
[02:27.11] And wait to be shipped o'er the ocean
[02:32.38] Hush, hush, time to be sleepin'
[02:37.28] Hush, hush, dreams come a-creepin'
[02:41.95] Dreams of peace and of freedom
[02:46.34] So smile in your sleep, bonny baby
[02:52.49] No use in cryin' or bleedin'
[02:56.64] Gone, gone, all hopes of stayin'
[03:01.41] So hush, hush, the anchor's a-weighin'
[03:07.39] Don't cry in your sleep, bonny baby
[03:13.75] Hush, hush, time to be sleepin'
[03:18.83] Hush, hush, dreams come a-creepin'
[03:23.92] Dreams of peace and of freedom
[03:28.44] So smile in your sleep, bonny baby
[03:34.18]
