Mother dear come bathe my forehead
For I´m growing very weak
Mother let one drop of water
Fall upon my burning cheek

I´m going away to leave you mother darling
And remember what I say
Do this won´t you please dear mother
Put my little shoes away

Santa Claus he brought them to me
With a lot of other things
I believe he brought an Angel
With a pair of golden wings

Tell my loving little playmates
That I never more will play
Give them all my toys but mother
Put my little shoes away

I´m going away to leave you mother darling
And remember what I say
Do this won´t you please dear mother
Put my little shoes away
