3066. Still, Still, Still

1 Still, still, still, the night is cold and chill.
The virgin's tender arms enfolding,
warm and safe the Christ child holding.
Still, still, still, the night is cold and chill.

2 Dream, dream, dream, he sleeps, the Savior king.
While guardian angels watch beside him
Mary tenderly will guide him.
Dream, dream, dream, he sleeps, the Savior king.

3 Schlaf, schlaf, schlaf, mein liebes Kindlein, schlaf.
Die Engel tunschön misizieren,
beidm Kindlein jubilieren.
Schlaf, schlaf, schlaf, mein liebes Kindlein, schlaf.
