Please go to the YouTube video below. Listen to and then sing along with this recording of Still, Still, Still. It is in German. We will sing 2 German verses and 2 English verses. They all follow the same melody.
Use your paper copy of the song as a guide, and write in pronunciations for the German, (see example below). You have 2 weeks to do this. We will go over it on Tuesday, Oct. 22. You will sound amazing singing this all together. Enjoy!
Still, still, still

Still, still, still, [I would write "shteel, shteel, shteel"
Weil's Kindlein schlafen will. [I would write "Vyles kihndt-line shlaf-in vill"]
Die Englein tun schön jubilieren, [dye enk-line toon shun yoo-be-lee-rhen]
Bei dem Kripplein musizieren. [bye dehm krip-line moo-zee-zee-rhen]
Still, still, still,
Weil's Kindlein schlafen will.
Schlaf, schlaf, schlaf,
Mein liebes Kindlein schlaf!
Maria tut dich niedersingen
Und ihr treues Herz darbringen.
Schlaf, schlaf, schlaf,
Mein liebes Kindlein schlaf!
He sleeps this night so chill!
The Virgin's tender arms enfolding,
Warm and safe the Child are holding,
Still, still, still,
He sleeps this night so chill
Sleep, sleep, sleep
He lies in slumber deep.
While angel hosts from heav'n come winging
Sweetest songs of joy are singing
Sleep, sleep, sleep
He lies in slumber deep.
