En lo más profundo del prado, allí, bajo el sauce,
hay un lecho de hierba, una almohada verde suave;
recuéstate en ella, cierra los ojos sin miedo
y, cuando los abras, el sol estará en el cielo.

Este sol te protege y te da calor,
las margaritas te cuidan y te dan amor,
tus sueños son dulces y se harán realidad
y mi amor por ti aquí perdurará.

En lo más profundo del prado, bien oculta,
hay una capa de hojas, un rayo de luna.
Olvida tus penas y calma tu alma,
pues por la mañana todo estará en calma.

Este sol te protege y te da calor,
las margaritas te cuidan y te dan amor.
Tus sueños son dulces y se harán realidad
y mi amor por ti aquí perdurará.


Suzanne Collins
