- "Schlafe, mein Prinzchen, schlaf' ein" is perhaps the most famous "Wiegenlied". The lyrics are by Friedrich Wilhelm Gotter and for many years the common view was that the melody was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Attribution for the melody has since shifted to Bernhard Flies or sometimes to Johann Friedrich Anton Fleischmann.
