Confirmed with Goethe's Werke. Vollständige Ausgabe letzter Hand. Erster Band. Stuttgart und Tübingen, in der J.G.Cotta'schen Buchhandlung. 1827, page 109; and with Goethe's Werke. Erster Band. Stuttgart und Tübingen, in der J. G. Cotta'schen Buchhandlung. 1815, page 99.

Note: in many older editions, the spelling of the capitalized word "über" becomes "Ueber", but this is often due to the printing process and not to rules of orthography, since the lower-case version is not "ueber", so we use "Über".

See also J.D. Falk's poem Unter allen Wipfeln ist Ruh.

1 Flügel, Gaugler, Hasse, Radecke: "Wipfeln" (according to the incipits given in Hofmeister) ; further changes may exist not noted above.
2 Greith, Schubert: "Vöglein"
3 Lachner adds
Über allen Wipfeln
Ist Ruh',
Balde
Ruhest du auch.

by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749 - 1832)
1. Boven alle bergen
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
 Boven alle bergen
 Is rust,
 In roerloze berken
 Merk je dus:
 Niets trekt voorbij.
 De vogeltjes zwijgen in het bos.
 Wacht nog, laat los
 Straks rust ook jij.

2. Trekkers nachtlied
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Gij die van de hemel zijt,
Iedereen van leed bevrijdt,
Hem, die dubb'le smarten lijdt,
Dubb'le lafenis bereidt,
Ach, ik ben het moe, het streven!
Waartoe dient verdriet en lust?
Zoete vrede,
Kom, ach kom, en geef mij rust!

3. Morgenlied  [sung text not yet checked]
by Ernst Paul Flügel (1844 - 1912), "Morgenlied", op. 43 (Drei Lieder für gemischten Chor) no. 3, published 1893 [ mixed chorus a cappella ], Zittau, Loebel
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Sterne sind verblichen
mit ihrem güldnen Schein
Bald ist die Nacht entwichen
der Morgen dringt herein

Noch waltet tiefes Schweigen
Im Tal und überall;
Auf frisch betauten Zweigen
Singt nur die Nachtigall.

Sie singet [Lob]1 und Ehre
Dem hohen Herrn der Welt,
Der überm Land und Meere
Die Hand des Segens hält.

Er hat die Nacht vertrieben:
Ihr Kindlein, fürchtet nichts!
Stets kommt zu seinen Lieben
Der Vater alles Lichts.
