Schlaf' ein, mein süßes Kind,
Da draußen geht der Wind,
Er rüttelt an dem Tannenbaum,
Da fliegt heraus ein schöner Traum,
Der fliegt durch Schnee und Nacht und Wind
Geschwind, geschwind zum lieben Kind,
Und singt von Licht und Kränzen,
Die bald am Christbaum glänzen.
Schlaf' ein, mein süßes Kind,
Da draußen bläst der Wind.
Doch ruft die Sonne: "Grüß euch Gott!"
Bläst er dem Kind die Backen rot,
Und sagt der Frühling: "Guten Tag!"
Bläst er die ganze Erde wach,
Und was er still gelegen,
Springt lustig allerwegen.
Jetzt schlaf', mein süßes Kind,
Da draußen bläst der Wind!

Dorm, dolç infant meu,
allà fora corre el vent,
fa sacsejar els avets,
llavors aixeca el vol un bonic somni
que vola a través de la neu i la nit i el vent,
veloç, veloç, vers l’estimat infant,
i canta sobre els llums i les garlandes
que aviat brillaran a l’arbre de Nadal.
Dorm, dolç infant meu,
allà fora bufa el vent.
Però quan el sol crida: “Déu vós guard!”
alena de vermell les galtes de l’infant,
i quan la primavera diu: “Bon dia!”
fa despertar tota la terra
i tot el que fins ara dormia
esclata joiós per tot arreu.
Però ara dorm, dolç infant meu,
allà fora bufa el vent!
