Classic Poem

I kiss the locks of your hair:
Do you feel me there,

Sleepy one?

I will put a kiss on your brow:
Are you waking now?

Won't you wake, sleepy one?

A kiss on your left eye, on your right—
Closed tight—closed tight—

Oh, you are a hard one to wake!

A kiss on your nose
Where your deep breath goes,

Sleepy one.

Now a kiss on each ear:
Do you hear, do you hear?

Wake, sleepy one!

A kiss for that cheek, a kiss for this:
How many kisses you will miss!

Won't you wake? Won't you wake?

Now I come to your lips that I love:
Oh, you are waking! You wake and move!

Sleepy one!

Sleepy one,
My kisses are done.

Oh, you are a hard one to wake!
