by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben (1798 - 1874)

Die Sterne sind verblichen
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.
