by Guido (Pieter Theodoor Jozef) Gezelle (1830 - 1899)

Slaapt, slaapt, kindje slaapt
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Slaapt, slaapt, kindje slaapt,
En doet uwe oogskes toe,
Die pinkelende winkelende oogskes daar,
'k ben 't wiegen al zo moe:
'k en kan u niet meer wiegen,
'k en ga u niet meer wiegen,
Slaapt, slaapt, toe!
g'hebt uw hert-uw mondje voldaan,
g'hebt al uw krinkelende krulletjes aan,
ach en 'k en kan van uw wiegske niet gaan:
slaapt, slaapt, toe!
