by Johannes Martin Miller (1750 - 1814)

Wiegenlied einer Mutter
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Chosen for Diff
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.
