Repousa Tranqüilo (Sleep Peacefully) VLA PART Viola - Digital Sheet Music
This arrangement for Viola and Piano of the increasingly popular northeast Brazilian Christmas lullaby Repousa Tranqüilo TRANQÜILIDADE also entitled Sleep Peacefully, is a beautiful folk tune has been recorded in more than one translation in recent years, sometimes with the Welsh lyric below. This transcription of the entirely public domain tune follows a common practice of moving from minor into major at the midpoint of the tune while also preserving the distinctively Brazilian harmonic quality in the opening verse and throughout. Sleep quietly my Jesus Now close your dear eyes Above you shine God's countless stars Like diamonds in the sky Beside your bed an angel crew With cattle have fed Your mother stands in watchful prayer And strokes your little head The shepherds leave, their flocks unwatched They bring you my love While angels of our father God Rejoice the song above From far away the wise men three Their treasures the bring The whole wide world before your kneels My Jesus little king.
