Es werd scho glei dumpa by Manfred Hößl — Lyrics
Es werd scho glei dumpa,
es werd scho glei Nacht,
drum kimm I zu Di her,
mei Heiland auf´d Wacht.
Will singa a Liadl,
em Kindl dem kloan,
du magst ja net schlafa,
I hör di nur woan.
R.: Hei, hei, hei, hei.
Schlaf süaß, herzliabs Kind.
Vergiß iaz oh Kinderl,
dein Kumma dei Load,
daß du da muaßt leidn
im Stall auf der Hoad.

About Es werd scho glei dumpa
This arrangement for TTBB male voices of the Austrian carol Es werd scho glei dumpa opens with a gentle, hushed texture. The German lyrics express a tender lullaby for the Christ Child, acknowledging his suffering but emphasizing the beauty of his stable, adorned by angels. The music mirrors the text's affectionate tone, depicting a profound sense of peace and devotion. The repeated refrain "Hei, hei, hei, hei" provides a simple, comforting anchor, guiding the listener through the reflections on the child's suffering and the desire for his sweet rest. It is a heartfelt expression of adoration and maternal tenderness, suitable for a reflective moment in a concert or service.
