Translated lyrics
As the lovely maiden cradled her dear Child,
She rocked Him gently, crooning with voice mild.
Li li li, my darling, dearest Child of mine,
li li li , my dearest, lovely, lovely Child.

All the words that maiden sang to Him,
Came from a heart so joyful, free from sin,
Li li li , my Kingling, greatest Kingling mine,
li li li, my Kingling, greatest heavnly King.

Then the host of angels, gathered all above,
Sang with the maiden their own song of love:
Li li li, earths flower, loveliest flowr of all,
li li li, earths flowr, O holiest Child of all.
