Forget now, little child,
Your grief, your sorrow
That you have to suffer
In the stable, on the heath.
Yes, the angels adorn
Your manger,
More beautifully
Than a king’s house.
Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye,
Sleep sweetly, dearest Child!
(from “Es wird scho glei dumpa” – a traditional, old, Austrian Christmas lullaby)
