Mother, Mother dear,
When the night is near,
When the reddy sun is sinking,
Then of me your heart is thinking,
Then your loving care
Makes a tender prayer;
Then of me your heart is
Thinking.
Gentle stars in heaven
Shine upon my sleep;
So your love is given,
Mother watch you keep,
Mother, mother deer,
When the night is near,
Then of me your heart is
thinking,
