by Ernst Scherenberg (1839 - 1905)

Nacht ist's, die Erde träumet;
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CHI
Nacht ist's, die Erde träumet;
In ernstem Schweigen ziehn
Hoch über ihr am Himmel
Sternbilder hin.

Nacht ist's; - vor meiner Seele
In tiefster Einsamkeit
Ziehn stille Sternbilder
Aus alter Zeit. --
