Ständchen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Schlumm're sanft in heil'ger Stille,
schließe deine Augen zu,
und ein schöner Traum erfülle
noch dein Herz in süßer Ruh'!

Schlumm're sanft! In deine Nähe
zog's mich mit gewalt'ger Macht;
ob ich dich auch nicht mehr sehe,
meine treue Liebe wacht.

Schlumm're sanft! Die Morgensonne
wecke dich mit stiller Pracht,
wecke dich zur neuen Wonne.
Teures Liebchen, gute Nacht!
