A free, original lullaby written just for the name Antonio — ready to read tonight or turn into a keepsake poster.
Antonio sleeps while stars ignite,
Soft and silver, burning bright,
The moon above his window beams,
Watching over him in dreams.
Velvet sky so deep and round,
Every star makes not a sound,
Little Antonio, soft and warm,
Held in heavens' brightest charm.
Cradle rocks in gentle night,
Stars above are burning white,
Antonio's breath is slow and deep,
While the moon begins to sleep.

Origin — Etruscan, via Latin
The Italian and Spanish form of the Roman family name Antonius, whose meaning is unknown (see Anthony).
We follow the standard reference works on given names, and we say so plainly when a meaning is unsettled rather than choosing the prettiest one.
Every BabyVerse verse is built around one name and its sound, so Antonio hears their own name carried through the meter rather than dropped into a blank. That is the whole difference between a keepsake and a personalised product: the words could not be reused for another child.
Parents read it at bedtime. Grandparents and godparents frame it. Either way it is the one gift on the table that no one else can duplicate — which is why it tends to outlast everything else in the pile.
