Nun liegt die Welt im Traume, 
Berauscht von Glanz und Duft --
Kein Blatt regt sich am Baume, 
Kein Vöglein in der Luft. 

Die müden Sterne neigen 
Zur Ruh' schon ihren Lauf, 
Doch mir im Herzen steigen 
Noch schön're Sterne auf. 

Was mir der Tag beschieden, 
Ward sorglos nie vollbracht, 
Doch selig ist der Frieden 
Der stillen heil'gen Nacht!
