German text
Still erleuchtet jedes Haus,
alles sieht so festlich aus,
Weihnachten kehrt wieder,
Christus kommt hernieder.
Tage früh verrinnen,
Lichter schimmern drinnen.
Kinderaugen blicken
strahlend vor Entzücken,
bis sie dann zu guter Ruh
endlich fallen selig zu. (Eibl)
Dann wachen auf die Sterne,
aus hoher Himmelsferne
bringen holde Träume
die Engelein.
Abends, will ich schlafen geh'n,
vierzehn Englein um mich steh'n:
zwei zu meinen Häupten,
zwei zu meinen Füßen,
zwei zu meiner Rechten,
zwei zu meiner Linken,
zweie, die mich decken,
zweie, die mich wecken,
zweie, die mich weisen
zu des Himmels Paradeisen. (Wette)
