Ich komme bald, ihr goldnen Kinder
 (Sung text for setting by G. Göhler)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich komme bald, ihr gold'nen Kinder!
Vergebens sperret uns der Winter
In uns're warmen Stuben ein.
Wir wollen uns zum Feuer setzen
Und tausendfältig uns ergötzen,
Uns lieben wie die Engelein!
Wir wollen kleine Kränzgen winden
Wir wollen kleine Sträußchen binden,
Wir wollen kleine Kinder sein.
