Wiegenlied im Sommer
See originalLanguage: German (Deutsch)
Our translations: CAT ENG FRE ITA
Vom Berg hinab gestiegen
Ist nun des Tages Rest;
Mein Kind liegt in der Wiegen,
Die Vöglein all' im Nest;
Nur ein ganz klein Singvögelein
Ruft weit daher im Dämmerschein:
"Gut' Nacht! gut' Nacht!
Lieb' Kindlein, gute Nacht!"
Das Spielzeug ruht im Schreine,
Die Kleider auf der Bank,
Ein Mäuschen ganz alleine
Es raschelt noch im Schrank,
Und draußen steht der Abendstern
Und winkt dem Kind aus weiter Fern':
"Gut' Nacht! gut' Nacht!
Lieb' Kindlein, gute Nacht!"
Die Wiege geht im Gleise,
Die Uhr pickt hin und her,
Die Fliegen nur ganz leise
Sie summen noch daher.
Ihr Fliegen, laßt mein Kind in Ruh'!
Was summet ihr ihm so heimlich zu?
"Gut' Nacht! gut' Nacht!
Lieb' Kindlein, gute Nacht!"
Der Vogel und die Sterne,
Die Fliegen rings umher,
Sie haben mein Kind schon gerne,
Die Engel noch viel mehr.
Sie decken's mit den Flügeln zu
Und singen leise: "Schlaf in Ruh!
Gut' Nacht! gut' Nacht!
Lieb' Kindlein, gute Nacht!"

Set to music by Mary Wurm (1860 - 1938), "Wiegenlied im Sommer", published 1890 [ voice and piano ], Ed. Bote & G. Bock, Berlin und Posen

Dietro al monte disceso
ora finisce il giorno.
Sta nella culla il bimbo
nel nido gli uccellini;
Ne resta uno soltanto
che canta lontano al tramonto:
"Buona notte! buona notte!
Bambino bello, buona notte!".
I giocattoli stanno nella panca
i vestiti nell'armadio,
un topolino tutto solo
raschia nella dispensa,
e in alto la stella della sera
sorride al bimbo da lontano:
"Buona notte! buona notte!
Bambino bello, buona notte!".
La culla dondola lieve
la pendola fa tic-tac,
Le mosche ancora in volo
vanno ronzando piano.
Mosche non molestate il mio bimbo!
Cosa gli dite col vostro ronzio?
"Buona notte! buona notte!
Bambino bello, buona notte!".
Gli uccelli e tutte le stelle
che stanno attorno al mio bimbo,
gli vogliono tanto bene,
e gli angeli ancora di più!
Lo proteggono con le loro ali
e cantano dolcemente: "Dormi sereno,
Buona notte! buona notte!
Bambino bello, buona notte!".
