A free, original lullaby written just for the name Harper — ready to read tonight or turn into a keepsake poster.
Little Harper, soft and small,
Stars above your nursery wall,
Silver beams begin to creep,
Guarding you in peaceful sleep.
Moonbeams paint your blanket bright,
Harper bathes in gentle light,
Twinkling stars begin to sing,
Lullabies that make you cling.
Harper, precious Harper, dear,
Constellations gather near,
Glowing softly through the night,
Wrapped in heaven's tender light.

Origin — English
An occupational surname for a player of the harp, from the Old English hearpere.
In medieval Ireland and Scotland the harper was a salaried household position, which is how the byname became hereditary.
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 Harper 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.
