A Nursery Rhyme for Layla
A free, original lullaby written just for the name Layla — ready to read tonight or turn into a keepsake poster.
Layla’s Starry Lullaby
Moonlit clouds drift soft and bright
Layla smiles in the gentle night
Silver stars hum a quiet ray
Casting love upon you, sweet ray
Twinkling pearls stretch far and wide
Layla's giggle rides the tide
Dreamy glow wraps the sky in blue
Night’s warm blanket hugs you too
Gentle breezes hum a lullaby
Layla’s heart beats with the sky
Stars blink softly, silver spray
Guiding wishes on their spray

What does the name Layla mean?
Origin — Arabic
From the Arabic layla, “night”.
The doomed heroine of the classical Arabic and Persian romance Layla and Majnun, retold for a thousand years and borrowed by Eric Clapton in 1970.
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.
