Original text and translations
- Sleep, my son, oh slumber softly.
- While thy mother watches o'er thee,
- Nothing can affright or harm thee.
- Sleep, oh! Sleep, my son.
- Far away, zithers play,
- Dancing gay, calls to-day
- Vainly play, zithers gay.
- Here I stay all the day.
- Happily guarding thee,
- Peacefully watching thee.
- Sleep, my son, oh slumber softly.
- While thy mother watches o'er thee,
- Sleep, oh! sleep my son.
