Lyrics
I am the little sand-manch
A friendly, helping hand-manch
My dear self come to touch you
To coddle and to clutch you
And gently scrape a merchandise of sand in your weary eyes
At once those heavy eyelids close
In seconds you begin to doze
And when you're deep in fairy fastest sleep
Light shimmers from the lodestar
To show the angels where you are
And they will bring you safely
To the land of dreams
My dreaming, dreaming children
Such happy seeming children
Linger in the land of dreams
And one good night
Let's say our prayers before we sleep
