Sleepy baby

Sleep, child...
Close your eyes...
Don't look through the window...
Don't listen to the footsteps...
Nana... nana... baby...
The night has already come...

---

Deep in the woods, when the moon appeared,
An old lullaby was lost along the road.
The wind swayed the leaves around the yard,
And a long shadow crawled across the ground.

The little girl asked:
— Mommy, who's out there?
But no one answered...
She only heard someone singing:
"Nana... nana..."

---

The clock strikes midnight,
The bonfire begins to die.
Three knocks on the window...
Knock... knock... knock...
— Who's there?
Then a voice replies:
— I've come to take you...

---

Sleep, baby,
For the Cuca is coming to take you,
Daddy went to the fields,
Mommy went to work.

Sleep, baby,
Don't let the night come in,
For when the Cuca sings...
No one can escape...

---

The little girl pulled up her blanket,
Trying to hide her face.
But she heard footsteps in the hallway
And smelled the scent of dead forest.

The door slowly creaked open...
Creeeeak...
On the other side, no one.

She looked down at the floor
And saw two bare legs
Standing beside the bed.

But they weren't human legs.
They were thin... twisted...
Covered in fur.

---

Don't look...
Don't call...
Don't scream...

The Cuca knows your name!
Don't run...
Don't flee...
Don't try...
The Cuca is already inside!

---

Sleep, baby,
For the Cuca is coming to take you,
Daddy went to the fields,
Mommy went to work.

Sleep, baby,
Don't let the night come in,
For when the Cuca sings...
No one can escape...

---

The next morning...
Father came back from the fields.
Mother came back from work.
The house was open.
The bed was empty.
And upon the pillow...

There was only a small tuft of green fur.

The father asked:
— Where is my daughter?
The mother didn't answer.
Because, coming from the forest...

They heard a child's voice singing:
"Nana... baby..."
And another voice, much older, answered:
"For the Cuca is coming to take you..."

---

Nana... nana... nana...
Sleep...
SLEEP!
Close your eyes...
CLOSE THEM!
She's behind you...

---

Sleep, baby,
For the Cuca is coming to take you,
Daddy went to the fields,
Mommy went to work.

Sleep, baby,
Don't let the night come in,
For when the Cuca sings...
No one can escape...

Sleep, baby,
For the Cuca is coming to take you...
Daddy went to the fields...
Mommy went to work...
And the Cuca...
...comes to sing.

---

Nana... baby...
Nana... baby...
Hehehehehe...
The Cuca is coming to take you...

Sleep, baby,
For the Cuca is coming to take you,
Daddy went to the fields,
Mommy went to work.

Sleep, baby,
Don't let the night come in,
For when the Cuca sings...
No one can escape...

Sleep, baby,
For the Cuca is coming to take you,
Daddy went to the fields,
Mommy went to work.

Sleep, baby,
Don't let the night come in,
For when the Cuca sings...
No one can escape...
