by Georg von Dyherrn (1847 - 1878)

Schaust du am stillen Abend auf
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Schaust du am stillen Abend auf
Zum blauen blinkenden Palast  -- 
Und siehst der Sterne hellen Lauf, 
Denk' an das Liebste, was du hast. 

Und wenn am Himmel dann von fern'
Aus seiner Höh' herniederschießt
Und still versenkt ein heller Stern:
Dann hat das Liebste dich gegrüßt.
