Weihnachten
Language:
German
Über die Hütte weht der Wind,
wo Joseph und Maria sind.
In den Ritzen Heu und Stroh,
und die Beiden so wunderfroh.
In dem allerärmsten Haus
geht ein Glanz [von dem]1 Kinde aus,
das in dieser seligen Nacht
in der Krippe liegt und lacht.
Engel kommen und wiegen es ein:
das ist das süsse Jesulein.
