Guten Abend Gute Nacht

well, a very famous traditional melody...


omg!! this is nearly a romantic view. But I totally, completely and eternally forgot to remove this plastic bottle *ggrr* Hope you enjoy this video... (-: MAximilian.

Guten Abend, gut' Nacht
Mit Rosen bedacht
Mit Näglein besteckt
Schlüpf 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
Die zeigen im Traum
Dir Christkindleins Baum
Schlaf nun selig und süß
Schau im Traum 's Paradies
Schlaf nun selig und süß
Schau im Traum 's Paradies

(Trad. / J. Johns / Chappell)

English: Good Evening, Good Night (Lullaby)

1. Good evening, good night,
Provided with roses,
Covered with carnations,
Slip under the blanket.
In the morning, if God wills,
You will wake again.
In the morning, if God wills,
You will wake again.

2. Good evening, good night,
Watched by little angels;
They show in your dream
The Christmas tree.
Just sleep blessed and sweet,
See Paradise in your dream.
Just sleep blessed and sweet,
See Paradise in your dream.


France: Bonsoir, bonne nuit

1. Bonsoir, bonne nuit,
Veillé par des roses
couvertes de petites épines,
Glisse sous l'édredon:
Demain matin, si Dieu veut,
Tu seras à nouveau éveillé,
Demain matin, si Dieu veut,
Tu seras à nouveau éveillé,

2. Bonsoir, bonne nuit,
Gardé par des angelots,
Qui te montrent en rêve
L'arbre du petit enfant Jésus:
Dors seulement, bienheureux et doucement
Regarde dans les rêves du Paradis
Dors seulement, bienheureux et doucement
Regarde dans les rêves du Paradis.

Spain: Buenas tardes, buenas noches (Canción de cuna)

1. Buenas tardes, buenas noches
Cubierto de rosas
Guarnecidas de uñitas,
Deslízate bajo el edredón:
Mañana por la mañana, si Dios quiere
Volverás a despertar.
Mañana por la mañana, si Dios quiere
Volverás a despertar.

2. Buenas tardes, buenas noches
Guardado por ángeles
Que te enseñan en el sueño
El árbol del Niño Jesús:
Sólo duerme, beato y tranquilo,
Mira en los sueños del Paraíso
Sólo duerme, beato y tranquilo,
Mira en los sueños del Paraíso.
