Har dagen sanket al sin sorg og graedt den ud i dug, saa aabner natten himlens borg med evigt tungsinds tavse sorg. Og en for en og to for to gaa fjerne verdeners genier frem af himmeldybets dunkle gem. Og hoejt over jordens lyst og elende med stjernekjerter hoejt i haende skride de langsomt hen over himlen. De fodtrin skifte med sorg i sinde. Underligt vifte for rummets kolde vinde stjernekjerternes flakkende flammer.

Le jour a rassemblé tout son chagrin Et l'a pleuré en rosée, Puis la nuit a ouvert le château du ciel Avec le chagrin discret d'une éternelle mélancolie. Et un par un Et deux par deux Les génies de mondes lointains sortent Des sombres profondeurs du ciel. Et au-dessus des plaisirs et des misères terrestres, Portant haut le flambeau des étoiles, Ils passent lentement dans le ciel. Ils se succèdent Avec le cœur lourd. Étrangement, Le vent froid de l'espace Fait vaciller les flammes errantes des étoiles.
