Abendlied [English translation]

Be very quiet, don't be afraid

Look he likes you so much

Above your little bed

Are seesawing sun, moon and stars

His hand, the big and heavy one

Squishes yours in two

And his mouth, the big and dark one

Hums a dulcet song at the same time

Little child, let yourself be kissed, little child, good night!

Now you have to sleep, you've been awake enough

Close the golden eyes

Fall asleep, fall asleep, fall asleep

My beloved little child

Fall asleep, you little daugther!

Even in this dark night

Your father is sitting at the bedside

And keeps watch

If at the night, or if in the morning

Be it late and be it early

He will always come back

His love never slumbers

Little child, let yourself be kissed, little child, good night...
