Abendlied
 (Sung text for setting by L. Liebe)
 Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Alle Wälder schweigen, 
Alle Bäume neigen 
Still ihr Haupt zur Ruh; 
Nur das Bächlein leise 
Singt die alte Weise, 
Murmelt immerzu. 

Lautlos wandeln Schatten 
Über dunkle Matten 
In das stille Thal, 
Und das Rohr am Teiche 
Rauscht im Schattenreiche, 
Alles schläft zumal. 

Durch die hohen Bäume 
In die stillen Räume 
Blickt das Mondgesicht; 
Aus der weiten Ferne 
Senden gold'ne Sterne 
Erdenwärts ihr Licht. 

Und im tiefen Frieden 
Webt das Herz hienieden 
Einen gold'nen Traum, 
Sendet alle Schmerzen 
Zu dem Vaterherzen 
In den Himmelsraum.
