A Nursery Rhyme for Matthew

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

Matthew's Starry Lullaby

Little Matthew gazes at the sky so bright

Silver clouds whisper, stars twinkle bright

A sleepy comet sails on silvery glow

Night wraps the world in gentle glow

Dreamy moon smiles down on Matthew's night

Silver breezes glide, keeping watchful night

Tiny constellations hum a quiet tune

And all the stars sing soft beside the tune

When sunrise paints the horizon, Matthew sighs

Morning stars fade, but their love still sighs

The sky keeps a whisper of the night so soft

And day wraps him in a blanket warm and soft

What does the name Matthew mean?

Origin — Hebrew

From the Hebrew Mattityahu, “gift of Yahweh”.

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 Matthew

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