Nun will die Sonn' so hell aufgehn, Als sei kein Unglück die Nacht geschehn! Das Unglück geschah nur mir allein! Die Sonne, sie scheinet allgemein! Du mußt nicht die Nacht in dir verschränken, Mußt sie ins ew'ge Licht versenken! Ein Lämplein verlosch in meinem Zelt! Heil sei dem Freudenlicht der Welt!

Ara sortirà el sol ben lluminós, com si de nit no hi hagués hagut cap desgràcia! La desgràcia només m'ha succeït a mi! El sol llueix per a tots! Tu no has de guardar la nit dins teu, l'has de submergir en la llum eterna! Una llàntia es va apagant a la meva llar! Benvinguda sigui la llum del món!
