Ins stille Land!
Wer leitet uns hinüber?
Schon wölkt sich uns der Abendhimmel trüber,
Und immer trümmervoller wird der Strand.
Wer leitet uns mit sanfter Hand
Hinüber! ach! hinüber
Ins stille Land?

Dans le pays du repos

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Kittl)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Dans le pays du repos !
Qui nous conduira là-bas ?
Déjà le ciel du soir se couvre de nuage,
Et le rivage est toujours plus couvert de débris.
Qui nous conduira d'une main douce
Là-bas ! Ah ! là-bas
Dans le pays du repos !
