Rue's Lullaby

"Deep in the meadow, under the willow
A bed of grass, a soft green pillow

Lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes
And when again they open, the sun will rise

Here it's safe, here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true,
Here is the place where I love you

Deep in the meadow,  hidden far away
A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray

Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
And when again it's morning they'll wash away

Here it's safe, here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true,
Here is the place where I love you"

In memory of Rue, female tribute of District Eleven
