A free, original lullaby written just for the name Hazel — ready to read tonight or turn into a keepsake poster.
Little Hazel, soft and bright,
Glowing in the hush of night,
Stars above in velvet blue,
Kiss the dark with silver dew.
Twinkle, twinkle, moon so near,
Whisper gentle songs of cheer,
Rest your head, dear Hazel, tight,
Safe beneath the lantern light.
Silver beams through window climb,
Marking out their lullaby time,
Hazel, close to all that's true,
Dream of skies forever new.
Written for Hazel

Origin — English
From the tree, Old English hæsel.
One of the botanical names taken up in the Victorian era, when English speakers began using plants and flowers as given names in quantity.
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 Hazel 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.
