Wiegenlied
Language: German (Deutsch)
Schaukeln und Gaukeln -- Halb wachender Traum! Schläfst du, mein Kindlein? Ich weiß es kaum. Halt zu dein Äuglein, draußen geht der Wind; Spiel fort dein Träumlein, Mein herzliebes Kind! Draußen geht der Wind, Reißt die Blätter vom Baum, Reißt die Blüten vom Zweig -- Spiel fort deinen Traum! Spiel fort deinen Traum, Blinzäugelein! Schaukelnd und gaukelnd Sitz ich und wein.

Hýčkán a laskán tak
Language: Czech (Čeština) after the German (Deutsch)
Hýčkán a laskán tak nv polospánku jen. Můj synku se usmíváš, Kdo zná tvůj sen? Zavři jen očka svý, venku je vítr zlý. Jen spi mé dětátko ty srdíčko mý. Venku je vítr zlý ten listí rve se stromů až se větve chví! Jen spi, mé dětátko, jen spi mé dětátko andílku můj, andílku můj Ty spíš už mé dítě a já pláči jen.
