Mit den Sternen kehrt die Liebe, Kehrt die Sehnsucht neu zurück: Walte denn mit sel'gem Triebe, Hohen Dranges Geisterglück! Mir im Herzen selig walte, Zauberbann der dunklen Nacht, Und geheimnißvoll entfalte Deines Zwanges holde Macht! Bringst du, Nacht, dem Himmel Sterne, Perlenthau der Rose jung. Gibst du Schwingen in die Ferne Mir zu hoher Liebe Schwung. Schwand auch in des Tags Getriebe Mir der Seele schmerzlich Glück, Mit den Sternen kehrt die Liebe, Kehrt die Sehnsucht neu zurück.

Language: English
``Father! father! where are you going? O do not walk so fast. Speak, father, speak to your little boy, Or else I shall be lost.'' The night was dark, no father was there; The child was wet with dew; The mire was deep, & the child did weep, And away the vapour flew.
