In the darkness, where the shadows play
Shhhh don't say a sound, the devil's on his way
He's listening close, with ears so fine
Shhhh stay under, don't let him find

The silence is deep, the night is still
Shhhh don't whisper, don't make a thrill
The devil's ears are sharp, his eyes are bright
Shhhh stay hidden, until the morning light

In the silent depths, we'll hide and seek
From the evil that lurks, with a wicked shriek
Shhhh don't make a sound, or he'll find our place
In the silent depths, we'll hide our face

So let's be quiet, and still as can be
Shhhh don't say a word, just wait and see
If we're silent, and careful as can be
Shhhh the devil will pass, and we'll be free

We'll hold...
