Aragon Lullaby Lyrics. An original lullaby inspired by Aragon, Spain’s northeastern region and home of the jota, a lively regional dance and music tradition. The jota is sung in a distinctive high, piercing style accompanied by castanets and the bandurria, a small stringed instrument, and Aragon’s landscape ranges from the high Pyrenees in the north to the fertile Ebro river valley running through its heart. Here you will find the lyrics, meaning, and chords.

Verse

Am Dm Am
Sleep now, little one, the jota rests tonight,
Dm Am E7
the Pyrenees stand calm and still, beneath the fading light.
Am Dm Am
Sleep now, little one, the river Ebro’s near,
Dm Am E7
tomorrow’s sun will rise for you, and chase away all fear.
