Who has lit the star, reflected in your eye?
Who removed the darkness in the shephards looks your first night?
Who has woven the crown of straws around your forehead?
Who has lead the three wise to our stable, my precious?
Are you one of a thousand small ones? Are you the one they await?
You, my little child, have been named by an angel
Are you the earths hidden treasure? (That) I have been protecting this night
Is it heaven itself which I rock in my arms?
Who has awoken the fear, which has taught your heart to cry?
Why does your hand grip your mothers hair so hard?
Shadows are dancing around us, now the angel is gone
He spoke of many beautiful things, much more than I can understand
Are you one of a thousand small ones? Are you the one they await?
You, my little child, have been named by an angel
Are you the earths hidden treasure? (That) I have been protecting this night
Is it heaven itself which I rock in my arms?
Make it so, that your days will lead to others happiness
Make it so, that everyone will meet you with love, tender and good
I will never forget the words I got to hear
Whatever happens, they will give us strenth and courage
Are you one of a thousand small ones? Are you the one they await?
You, my little child, have been named by an angel
Are you the earths hidden treasure? (That) I have been protecting this night
Is it heaven itself which I rock in my arms?
Who has lit the star, reflected in your eye?
Heavenly diamond, over the city of Betlehem
