Swinging in the Trees
(English Version with Tags)
[Soft Female Narrator]
[Flamenco Guitar – gentle strumming]
[Conga – soft rhythm]
[Swing Beat]
[Fast Tempo ]
Swinging in the trees, high above the ground,
Leather-wrapped cradles go spinning ‘round and ‘round.
Soft, warm, and gentle, stitched with loving hands,
Cradles made for dreaming, rocking where they stand.
Mothers watch closely, hearts full of care,
Babies smile softly, breathing fresh air.
Safe from the bugs, the heat, and the wild,
Nature’s own nursery for every child.
[Flamenco Guitar – playful riff]
[Conga – steady swing]
Leaves dance on the breeze, sunlight through the trees,
Babies watch butterflies, swaying with ease.
Sunlight on cheeks, stars shining at night,
Cradled by branches, held snug and tight.
A mother sings softly, her voice smooth and deep,
A lullaby promise she’s sworn to keep:
“Rock-a-bye baby, on the tree top,
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock.”
[Conga – brushes and taps]
[Flamenco Guitar – rhythmic strum]
“When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall,
Down will come baby, cradle and all.”
But the song means growing, strong and free,
One day you’ll stand tall, just like a tree.
Letting go gently, as nature intends,
Love is the cradle that never quite ends.
Swinging in the trees, rocking to the beat,
Little feet tapping, can’t stay in your seat.
[Flamenco Guitar – melodic runs]
[Conga – lively rhythm]
Birds sing above you, sunlight in your hair,
Laughter in the treetops, music everywhere.
Hearts full of wonder, dreams on the breeze,
Growing up gently, swinging in the trees.
Every new morning brings stories to share,
Love in the branches, hope in the air.
Safe in this cradle, wild and free,
Swinging in the trees, where you’re meant to be.
Honor the mothers, their voices, their lands,
Wisdom held softly in gentle hands.
Falling’s not ending, it’s just moving on,
To stand in the sunlight, to greet the new dawn.
[Chorus – Repeat as desired]
Swinging in the trees, high above the ground,
Life is a melody, love is the sound.
Jazz in your heartbeat, sun in your hair,
Swinging in the trees, you’re safe up there.
