Good morning, hiveopenmicHive account@hiveopenmic community! With Mother’s Day coming up this week, I thought I’d share a song I used to sing to my daughters to help them fall asleep: “Lullaby” by Brahms, the German composer, pianist, and conductor.

Lyrics in German

Guten Abend, gut Nacht
Mit Rosen bedacht
Mit Näglein bestickt
Schlupf unter die Deck'
Morgen früh, wenn Gott will
Wirst du wieder geweckt
Morgen früh, wenn Gott will
Wirst du wieder geweckt
Guten Abend, gut Nacht
Von Englein bewacht
Sie zeigen im Traum
Dir Christkindleins Baum
Schlaf nun selig und süß
Schau im Traumsparadies
Schlaf nun selig und süß
Schau im Traumsparadies

Lyric in English

Good evening, good night
Covered with roses
Embroidered with carnations
Slip under the covers
Tomorrow morning, God willing
You’ll be woken again
Tomorrow morning, God willing
You’ll be woken again
Good evening, good night
Guarded by little angels
In your dreams they’ll show you
The Christ Child’s tree
Sleep now, blissfully and sweetly
Gaze upon the paradise of dreams
Sleep now, blissfully and sweetly
Gaze upon the paradise of dreams
