Schlaf Chindli, schlaf (Live)

Schlaf, Chindli, schlaf
U bis nid immer brav
Säg nid zu aûem Ja drzue
Drėssierti Rössli git s scho gnue
Mängisch schwümsch im Schtroom drgäge
S isch bėsser, aûs Ja und Amen z säge
Schlaf
U bis nid immer brav
Schlaf, Chindli, schlaf
Bis muetig u nid brav
Gly muesch lėėre säûber louffe
Mit Blätzen am Chnöi muesch s tüür erchouffe
Doch wär sech nid cha dürebysse
Wirt o nie kė Schtrick verrysse
Schlaf
Bis muetig u nid braav
Schlaf, Chindli, schlaf
Bis fröhlech u nid brav
Luschtig sy u Schtrėich uushėcke
Am Unggle Max dr Schnaps verschtėcke
S isch mer lieber, du chönsch lache
Aûs wüstisch tuusig gschidi Sache
Schlaf
Bis fröhlech u nid brav
Schlaf, Chindli, schlaf
Nėi, ds Läben isch kė Schtraaf
Es isch es Gschänk, doch muesch de lėėre:
O für Gschänk muesch di mängisch wėėre
D Wäût, di isch e Bluemeschtruuss
U du bisch ds chlinschte Blüemli druus
Schlaf
U bis nid immer brav

Sleep, Little One, Sleep (Live)

Sleep, little one, sleep
Don't always be good
Don't say yes to everything
Trained horses are common enough
Sometimes swim against the tide
It's better than just saying yes and amen
Sleep
And don't always be good
Sleep, little one, sleep
Be brave and not good
Soon you must learn to walk on your own
With bruises on your knees you must pay dearly
But who can't get through
Will never break any ropes
Sleep
Be brave and not good
Sleep, little one, sleep
Be cheerful and not good
Play pranks and act silly
Hide Uncle Max's schnapps
I'd rather you could laugh
Than know a thousand smart things
Sleep
Be cheerful and not good
Sleep, little one, sleep
No, life is not a punishment
It is a gift, but you must learn:
Oh, for gifts you must sometimes fight
The world is a bouquet of flowers
And you are the smallest flower in it
Sleep
And don't always be good
