AS I LIE DOWN

IN MY BED

WITH THE

VIRGIN MARY

 IN MY HEART

AND AS I SLEEP

IF THERE 

IS ANY DANGER, 

VIRGIN MARY

WILL 

AWAKEN ME.

AMONG FOUR

WATCHMEN

THERE WAS THE

 ANGEL GABRIEL,

AND HE TOLD ME 

AND HE WROTE ME

TO MAKE THE SIGN 

OF THE CROSS;

IN THE NAME 

OF THE FATHER

AND THE SON 

AND THE

HOLY GHOST;

AMEN. (three times)

AS I LIE DOWN

WITH JESUS,

WITH JESUS

AT MY SIDE,

I AM ALWAYS

WITH JESUS,

SO I HAVE

NO FEAR.

 MOON, LITTLE MOON, MAKE ME A CRULLER

MOON, LITTLE MOON,

MAKE ME

A CRULLER,

FOR MY

GREAT HUNGER,

WHICH I WILL TAKE

TO SAINT JOHN,

IF SAINT JOHN DOES

NOT WANT IT,

I WILL TAKE IT

TO SAINT GREGORY,

AND IF

SAINT GREGORY

LIKES IT, 

HE WILL DIVIDE IT

AMONG THE RABBITS,

THE RABBITS

ON THE STAIRS 

WILL GET EXCITED,

AND KNOCK OVER

THE BEAUTIFUL URN

BREAKING IT.

THE URN WAS

FULL OF HONEY.

LONG LIVE

SAINT MICHAEL,

WHO ASCENDED

INTO HEAVEN,

TO RING THE BELLS  

AND THE BELLS

WERE HEARD.

LONG LIVE GOD,

I thank my Cousin Charles Adorney, who translated

the prayers and the nursery rhyme, as well as my

 Goddaughter Giada Daly, who recited them in English.
