Wand'rer zieht auf fernen Wegen
    In der Brust der Sehnsucht Qual,
Horch, da tönt die Abendglocke
    Lieblich durch das stille Thal.
 
Und der Wand'rer steht und lauschet,
    Auf den Stab gestützt, ihr zu:
"Abendglöckchen, Abendglöckchen,
    Wiegst nun Alt und Jung zur Ruh!"
 
"Wiegst zur Ruhe alle, alle,
    Und mit ihnen Lust und Schmerz,
Wann, o Glöckchen, rufst du endlich
    Auch zur Ruh', zur Ruh' mein Herz?"
