A Nursery Rhyme for Declan
A free, original lullaby written just for the name Declan — ready to read tonight or turn into a keepsake poster.
Declan's Starry Night
The silver moon begins to glow
Upon the world so far below
A little star begins to shine
And sends a beam to you, Declan mine
The night sky wears a cloak of blue
And brings its glowing light to you
The constellations softly gleam
And guide you to a pleasant dream
So rest your head and softly lay
While starlight keeps the dark away
The heavens spin a gentle bright
And fill your room with peaceful light

What does the name Declan mean?
Origin — Irish
An anglicised form of the Irish Deaglán, borne by an early saint of the Déisi in Waterford.
Where sources disagree: The meaning has not been established; “full of goodness” and “man of prayer” are offered without solid support.
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.
