A Nursery Rhyme for Nicholas
A free, original lullaby written just for the name Nicholas — ready to read tonight or turn into a keepsake poster.
Nicholas, Starlight Dear
The moon hangs up so high and clear,
To watch over our Nicholas, dear,
The stars begin to bloom and glow,
And light the paths where dream-things grow.
Nicholas floats on velvet skies,
Where gentle starlight softly lies,
The moon hums low a silver tune,
To greet the coming of the moon.
Each spark above begins to sing,
Of love that wraps like blankets round, sweet spring,
Nicholas drifts in starry beams,
The universe holds all his dreams.

What does the name Nicholas mean?
Origin — Greek
From the Greek Nikolaos: nikē, “victory”, plus laos, “people”.
St Nicholas of Myra, a fourth-century bishop known for secret gift-giving, becomes Sinterklaas in Dutch and then Santa Claus.
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.
