搖
搖,捷克民歌,耶穌聖誕歌,搖籃曲。一九二〇年以捷克聖誕歌名義刊載[1]。一九二八年英國聖公會翻譯為英文[2]。一九六〇年代歌手翻唱先再興起。
歌詞分兩段,講到馬槽中耶穌聖嬰,好似後世咁瞓喺搖籃,咁當然,無史實根據,亦無神學根據,只有少少跟基督教聖經[3]。詞中意思大概話細個耶穌瞓得好,唔好搞醒。有件皮褸保暖,搖下搖下咁。搖籃意味,就類似平安夜同馬槽歌[4]。
近似曲調有挪威歌保羅隻雞乸。
名

we will rock you, rock you, rock you;
see the fur to keep you warm,
snugly round your tiny form.

Sleep in comfort, slumber deep;

we will rock you, rock you, rock you;
we will serve you all we can,
Darling, darling little man
