Schlafe, schlaf
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): ENG
Schlafe, schlaf, schliesse deine Augenlider, öffne deinen süssen Mund, und in Träumen gib mir kund, alles was ich kenne wieder, schlafe, schlaf. Wie sich Aug' in Auge traf, wie sich Lipp' an Lippe fragten und die Herzen eines sagten, sage, wie sich alles traf. Schlafe, schlaf.
