Mille cherubini in coro [Orig. Wiegenlied, D 498 by Franz Schubert] [English translation]

A choir of a thousand cherubs

smiles down on you from heaven.

A sweet song

caresses your head.

A gentle hand leads you

through the gilded clouds,

dreaming and keeping watch

over you, my treasure,

protecting you on your way.

Sleep, sleep,

dream, my little love.

Sleep, dream,

rest your head on my breast.

Close your eyes,

listen to the little angels,

sleep, sleep,

dream, little love.

Close your eyes,

listen to the little angels,

sleep, sleep,

dream, little love.
