Über die Hütte weht der Wind
Language: German (Deutsch)
Our translations: ENG
Über die Hütte weht der Wind, wo Joseph und Maria sind. In den Ritzen Heu und Stroh, und die beiden so wunderfroh. In dem allerärmsten Haus geht ein Glanz von dem Kinde aus, das in dieser seligen Nacht in der Krippe liegt und lacht. Engel kommen und wiegen es ein. Das ist das süße Jesulein.
