by Julius Rodenberg (1831 - 1914)

Mond und goldne Sterne glimmen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Mond und goldne Sterne glimmen 
Freundlich noch im Abendduft; 
Lautenklang und Mädchenstimmen
Schaukeln durch die weiche Luft.

Wie das Lied mit lieben Klängen 
Sich an Herz und Seele schmiegt, 
Wird des Tages lautes Drängen 
In den schönsten Traum gewiegt.

Fern die hohen Wälder düstern, 
Wind und Blumen rauschen sacht,
Und die schönsten Lippen flüstern: 
Müder Sänger, gute Nacht!
