Here are the original German, Literal English,
 and traditional English lyrics!

Original German

Guten Abend, gute Nacht,
mit Rosen bedacht,
mit Näglein besteckt,
schlupf? unter die Deck!
Morgen früh, wenn Gott will,
wirst du wieder geweckt.

Guten Abend, gute Nacht,
von Englein bewacht,
die zeigen im Traum
dir Christkindleins Baum.
Schlaf nun selig und süß,
schau im Traum ?s Paradies.

Literal English Version

Good evening, good night,
With roses covered,
With cloves adorned,
Slip under the covers.
Tomorrow morning, if God wants so,
you will wake once again.

Good evening, good night.
By angels watched,
Who show you in your dream
the Christ-child?s tree.
Sleep now blissfully and sweetly,
see the paradise in your dream.

Traditional English version

Lullaby and good night,
With roses bedight,
With lilies o'er spread
Is baby's wee bed.
Lay thee down now and rest,
May thy slumber be blessed.

Lullaby and good night,
Thy mother's delight,
Bright angels beside
My darling abide.
They will guard thee at thy rest,
Thou shalt wake on my breast.
