Jeder hat's gehabt, Keiner hat's geschätzt, Jeden hat der süsse Quell gelabt, O wie klingt der Name Friede jetzt! Klingt so fern und zag, Klingt so tränenschwer, Keiner weiß und kennt den Tag, Jeder sehnt ihn voll Verlangen her. Sei willkommen einst, Erste Friedensnacht, Milder Stern, wenn endlich du erscheinst Überm Feuerdampf der letzten Schlacht. Dir entgegen blickt Jede Nacht mein Traum, Ungeduldig rege Hoffnung pflückt Ahnend schon die goldne Frucht vom Baum. Sei willkommen einst, Wenn aus Blut und Not Du am Erdenhimmel uns erscheinst, Einer andern Zukunft Morgenrot!

Tothom l’ha tingut, ningú l’ha apreciat, Tothom s’ha refrescat a la dolça font, oh, com ressona ara el nom de la pau! Ressona tan llunyà i tímid, ressona tan carregat de llàgrimes, ningú sap ni coneix el dia, tothom el desitja ple d’anhel. Sigues benvinguda algun dia, primera nit de pau, estrella benigna, quan tu finalment apareguis damunt la fumera del foc de la darrera batalla. Cada nit el meu somni mena l’esguard cap a tu, amb intensa i impacient esperança albira ja de collir la fruita daurada de l’arbre. Sigues benvinguda algun dia, quan de la sang i la fretura ens apareixeràs al cel de la terra, albada d’un altre futur!
