Abendlied
Language: German (Deutsch)
Leise geht der Tag zur Rüste;
purpurrot zum letztenmal
glüht der Wald, als ob ihn küsste
heiß der Sonne goldner Strahl.
Weiße Nebelschleier steigen
wallend aus dem See empor.
Rings ist Stille nur und Schweigen
und kein Laut klingt an mein Ohr.
Und es streben alle müden Seelen
nun der Heimat zu.
Denn der Abend lockt mit Frieden
und die Nacht mit süßer Ruh.
Und in ferne Weltenweiten
wogt die Seele mir hinaus,
gleich als wollte sie bereiten
sich zum ewgen Flug ins Vaterhaus.

Chant du soir
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Doucement le jour va vers le repos ;
Pour la dernière fois, en pourpre
Brille la forêt, comme si elle recevait un baiser
Chaud d'un rayon doré du soleil.
Des voiles de brume blancs s'élèvent
Flottant au-dessus du lac,
Tout autour li n'y que calme et silence
Et aucun bruit n'arrive à mon oreille.
Et toutes les âmes fatiguées s'efforcent
D'atteindre maintenant leur patrie.
Car le soir attire la paix
Et la nuit un doux repos.
Et dans les lointaines étendues du monde
Mon âme ondule au-delà de moi,
Comme si elle voulait préparer le chemin
Pour le vol éternel vers la demeure du Père.
