Three Nocturnes (Daniel Elder) :
1. Ballade to the Moon • Ballade to the Moon〈月光...
2. Star Sonnet • Star Sonnet〈星之十四行詩〉(Da...
3. Lullaby
本曲以輕盈流暢的琴音揭開序幕,而後女聲帶出甜美的主題,柔和地唱著母親哄孩子入睡的曲調。一聲聲的「Away, away」溫柔地將孩子送入夢鄉。次段以色彩豐富的音樂描繪廣闊大地間的優美景致,間奏後速度減慢,主題再現,此處鋼琴極為精簡,營造出靜夜裡闔上雙眼、安穩入眠的氛圍。末段,飽滿多層次的和聲歌詠大自然的美景與沉靜的夜幕,音樂回歸平靜,全曲在緩慢而低沉的歌聲中悄然結束。
此曲簡單空靈,營造出自然靜謐的氛圍。歌詞除了描寫慈母於長夜中以歌聲伴子女入夢,驅趕不安、陰暗與孤獨,也具有祈願逝者安息和撫慰生者之意,盼輕柔的樂音讓逝者安詳離去。

Lullaby, sing lullaby,
The day is far behind you.
The moon sits high atop the sky,
Now let sweet slumber find you.
Away,
The day is done, and gone the sun
That lit the world so brightly.
The earth’s aglow with speckled show
Of twinkling stars so sprightly.
Away,
Where the sunlight is beaming
Through a deep, cloudless blue,
And the treetops are gleaming
With a fresh morning dew;
Where the mountains are shining
At the meadows below,
In a brilliant white lining
Of a new-fallen snow.
Close your eyes, breathe in the night;
A softer bed I’ll make you.
The trial is done, all danger gone;
Now let far dreaming take you.
Away,
Where the ocean is lapping
At a soft, pearly shore,
And the swaying palms napping
As their swinging fronds soar.
Now the dark night approaches,
Yet so soft and so mild.
Lullaby, sing lullaby;
Sleep now, my child.
搖籃曲 輕哼搖籃曲
白日淡然遠離
月輪高掛天頂
讓甜美睡意引領
入夢 遠行
白晝落幕
驕陽退去
瑩瑩眾星照映
亮斑閃耀大地
入夢 遠行
陽光穿透天穹
清澈湛藍無雲
樹梢光點閃爍
晨露散發清新
山陵隱透微光
照亮山下綠茵
靄靄白雪新落
燦爛銀毯覆地
闔上眼 於靜夜休憩
備好輕軟床褥
磨難已然消弭
讓遠走的夢帶你
入夢 遠行
海洋輕拍沙灘
柔軟珠光長岸
棕梠擺蕩歇息
葉片隨風搖曳
漫漫黑夜降臨
軟柔溫和盡顯
搖籃曲 輕哼搖籃曲
安穩地睡吧 我的孩子
