O sleep fairy, sleep fairy high in the sky
Above the tents in the dark wood do you fly
Not a thought for us girls in need of your spell
As we lie awake worrying all is not well
O sleep fairy, sleep fairy we watch you prance
As in out tents we do the duvet dance
If only you would flutter within our grasp
Your precious wings in our hand we would clasp
O sleep fairy, sleep fairy caught you at last
Into a jam jar and seal the lid on fast
Come back to my tent and stay here awhile
Already I'm relaxed and happy with smile
O sleep fairy, sleep fairy how magical you seem
For now when I lie down at last I dream
And as I fall into a deep, deep sleep
Your mystical ways I would love to keep
But sleepless woodies don't despair
I'll not keep her long, it's only fair
that the sleep fairy spreads here magic around
So don't worry girls you'll soon by sleeping sound xx
