1. Torches here, Jeannette, Isabella!

Torches here to His cradle run!

Now you there, and you others, bequiet!

For at a born,’tis Mary calling.

Ah! Ah! What a lovely Mother!

Ah! Ah! What a lovely Child!

Wrong it is, when the Baby is sleeping, Wrong it is to shout so loud.

Now you there, and you others, bequiet!

For at a sound our Jesus wakens.

Hush! Hush! He is sleeping soundly, Hush! Hush! Do but see Him sleep!

3. Who comes there in this way knocking, knocking?

Who comes there knocking, knocking like that?

Open then! We have put on a plate Some very good cakes, which here we carry, Toc! toc! open wide the door then, Toc! toc! let us have a feast!

4. Softly now in the narrow stable, Softly now for a moment stay.

Come quite near! How charming is Jesus!

Oh, look, how white! Oh see, how rosy!

Do! do! let the Baby slumber!

Do! do! see the Baby smile!
