by Johannes Martin Miller (1750 - 1814)

Wiegenlied einer Mutter
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Schlaf, mein Püppchen, ungestört
Bis zum nächsten Morgen!
Daß kein Leid dir widerfährt,
Wird dein Schöpfer sorgen.
 
Deine Mutter wacht ja noch,
Betet für dein Leben:
Schütz, o Gott, den Liebling doch,
Den du mir gegeben!
 
Mehr, als dieses Mutterherz,
Liebt dich seine Liebe;
Engel steigen niederwärts,
Daß dich nichts betrübe.
 
Schlaf, mein Püppchen, sanft und süß,
Weil die Engel wachen;
Morgen wirst du dann gewiß
Frisch und froh erwachen.
