Nunnu, chindli, schlaf! Uf der mattun weidun d'schaf,
D'schwarzun und d'wissun
Chemmid mis chind gan bissun.

Nunnu, druselibus!
Chumm bid mar in d'Haselnuss;
Ich weiss an ganzi stuida voll
Und we"e nid,
Wa ich druber soll

Nunnu, Chindli, Schlaf (Now Then Sleep, My Child)!
In the meadow sheep are grazing,
Black and white.
You my child, They'll want to bite.

Now then, dear one!
Come with me to the hazelnut grove.
Full-laden the bushes will be.
What to do with all
I cannot see.
