by Friedrich Hasslwander (1840 - 1914)

Lied der Mutter
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Nacht bricht an, die Sonne sank,
mein holdes Kind, schlaf ein!
Schon glitzern an dem Himmel blank
die gold'nen Sternelein.

Nun schmieg' dich sanft und ruhe gut,
mein holdes Kind, schlaf ein!
Du bist geschützt in treuer Hut,
schließ zu die Äugelein.

Wach' auf, wenn schwand der Sterne Schein
im neuen Tageslauf;
dann geh'n die schönsten Sternelein
an meinem Himmel auf.
