-Schlaf wohl, du Himmelsknabe du,
-schlaf wohl, du süßes Kind;
-dich fächeln Engelein in Ruh
-mit sanftem Himmelswind.
-Wir armen Hirten singen dir
-ein herzigs Wiegenliedlein für:
-Schlafe, Himmelssöhnchen, schlafe!
-Maria hat mit Mutterlieb'
-dich leise zugedeckt;
-und Joseph hält den Hauch zurück,
-daß er dich nicht erweckt.
-Die Schäflein, die im Stalle sind,
-verstummen vor dir Himmelskind:
-Schlafe, Himmelssöhnchen, schlafe!
-Und wirst du groß, dann fließt dein Blut
-von Golgatha herab,
-ans Kreuz dich schlägt der Menschen Wut,
-dann legt man dich ins Grab.
-Hab' immer deine Äuglein zu,
-denn du bedarfst der süßen Ruh:
-Schlafe, Himmelssöhnchen, schlafe!
