Cape Breton Lullaby - a song by Kenneth Leslie.
Driftwood is burning blue,
wild walk the wall shadows,
night winds go riding by,
riding by the Lochie meadows,
On to the ring of day
flows Myra's stream, singing,
Cadil gu lo, laddie, lo, laddie, sleep the stars away!
Far on Ben Breea's side
wander the lost lambies -
here, there, and everywhere,
everywhere their troubled mammies
Find them and fold them deep,
fold them to sleep singing,
Cadil gu lo, laddie, lo, laddie, sleep the moon away!
Daddie is on the Bay;
he'll keep the pot brewin' ,
keep all from tumblin' down,
tumblin' down to wrack and ruin.
Pray Mary send him home,
safe from the foam, singing,
Cadil gu lo, laddie, lo, laddie, sleep the dark away!

This book is based on letters from mothers and wives who haven't yet figured out how to manage their delicate relationship.
The reader will not agree with all the suggestions made by Great Granny in her
replies to letters she receives. They are not intended as directions or rules of
procedure, just good ideas to help troubled people think through their own
problems. Alternate ideas, often the best for each individual case will be found and mature women, and the wives of their sons, are able to achieve mutually good relations. This book is dedicated to those who are still working on it. 
To order, see below.
