A Nursery Rhyme for Rae

A free, original lullaby written just for the name Rae — ready to read tonight or turn into a keepsake poster.

Rae's Starry Lullaby

Little Rae beneath the night,

Soft and warm in candlelight,

See the silver star so high

Blinking softly in the sky.

Moon above the willow tree,

Shining on my baby and me,

Constellations trace the dark

Like a quilt of scattered spark.

Tiny Rae, the night is deep,

Stars like guardian angels keep

Watch above your peaceful face

Bathed in gentle glowing grace.

What does the name Rae mean?

Origin — Hebrew and Scots

A short form of Rachel, “ewe”; also a Scottish surname from a place name or from the roe deer.

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.

A rhyme written around Rae

Every BabyVerse verse is built around one name and its sound, so Rae 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.
