Kommt gezogen,
Kleine Vögel, kommt geflogen,
Deckt mit euren leichten Schwingen
Meines Kindleins Augen zu.
Helft mir singen
Und mein Kind in Schlummer bringen:
Schlaf in Ruh!
lu, lu, lu, lu, lu.
Weht ihr holden
Düfte bunter Blumendolden,
Wehe, Blütenduft der Linde,
Meines Kindleins Augen zu!
Abendwinde,
Flüstert leise meinem Kinde:
Schlaf in Ruh!
lu, lu, lu, lu, lu.
