Waldesnacht, du wunderkühle,
Die ich tausend Male grüß',
Nach dem lauten Weltgewühle,
O wie ist dein Rauschen süß!
Träumerisch die müden Glieder
Berg' ich weich in Moos,
Und mir ist, als würd' ich wieder
All der irren Qualen los.
...
In den heimlich engen Kreisen,
Wird dir wohl, du wildes Herz,
Und ein Friede schwebt mit leisen
Flügelschlägen niederwärts.
Singet, holde Vogellieder,
Mich in Schlummer sacht!
Irre Qualen, löst euch wieder;
Wildes Herz, nun gute Nacht!

Nit del bosc, de frescor meravellosa,
que jo saludo mil vegades,
desprès del sorollós rebombori del món,
oh, com n'és de dolç el teu mormol!
Somnolent, estenc els meus cansats membres
en la molsa tova,
i és com si de nou em deslliurés
de totes les meves folles angoixes.
...
En els cercles íntims i secrets
t'hi sentiràs bé, cor neguitós,
i em davalla una pau
amb silenciós aleteig.
Canteu ocells els vostres cants encisadors,
que dolçament em facin adormir!
Folles angoixes, dissipeu-vos de nou,
cor neguitós, a hores d'ara, bona nit!
