Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Jrau ess d′r Himmel
Janz off em Dezember
Doch Hügg ess heilije Naach
överall, Kääze un Lämpchen jon an
D'r Weihnachtsmann kütt
Un die Pänz jläuve dran.
Su lauf ich alt wigger die Stroße entlang
Ed ess Weihnachten, mir ess et warm
Leis′ rieselt der Schnie
Die Naach ess still wie nie
Un ich jang in der Dom
Stääch e Kääz für dich an
Den an Weihnachten jläuv ich da dran
En Jung mit ner Gitarr'
Spielt heilije Naach
Un der Himmel hät ooch noch jet
Schnie mitjebrach
Et ess fast perfekt
Nur die Lück sin jeck
Die hääze mit Büggele fast wie vor Schreck
Wo vor laufe die fott, wat ess hier los
Wat die Minsche Weihnachten kost'
Leis′ rieselt der Schnie
Die Naach ess still wie nie
Un ich jang in der Dom
Stääch e Kääz für dich an
Den an Weihnachten jläuv ich da dran
Leis′ rieselt der Schnie
Die Naach ess still wie nie
Un ich jang in der Dom
Stääch e Kääz für dich an
Den an Weihnachten jläuv ich da dran
Und at Mädche mit Schwäfelche
Dat sitz im Schnie
Un irjendwie deit mir mie Hätz plötzlich wieh
Un so jang ich noh Huus, op heilije Naach
Und ich hoff' das du op mich wadst
Leis′ rieselt der Schnie
Die Naach ess still wie nie
Un ich jang in der Dom




Stääch e Kääz für dich an
Den an Weihnachten jläuv ich da dran X3
