(Content of Song)
“My baby sleeps so well
Your eyes are big, so you will find lost things easily
Your ears are big, so you will hear well
Your nose is big, so you will smell well
Your mouth is big, so you will eat well
Your hands are big, so you will receive gifts well
Your feet are big, so you won't fall
Where have you been that you come now, my dear grandson?”
