English translation:
Sleep, sweet babe! my cares beguiling:
Mother sits beside thee smiling;
Sleep, my darling, tenderly!
If thou sleep not, mother mourneth,
Singing as her wheel she turneth:
Come, soft slumber, balmily!

"The gorgeous harmonies were richly drawn out by Munce’s direction, and the two soprano soloists, Amy Krinke and Beth Munce, were in such perfect harmony as to absolutely sound like one powerful voice. The piece’s gentle dissonances were pleasing, and the quietly peaceful ending contrasted with the more boisterous endings of much holiday music. This one is a winner."
