Wenn ich auf dem Lager liege
In Nacht und Kissen gehüllt,
So schwebt mir vor ein süßes,
Anmutig liebes Bild!

Wenn mir der stille Schlummer
Geschlossen die Augen kaum,
So schleicht das liebe Bild
Hinein in meinen Traum

Und mit dem Traum des Morgens
Zerrinnt es nimmermehr;
Dann trag' ich es im Herzen
Den ganzen Tag umher.

Avondlied
 (Sung text translation for setting by J. Lang)
 See original
Language: Dutch (Nederlands)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Lig ik op mijn bed te rusten,
In nacht en kussens gehuld,
Dan zweeft mij voor een lieflijk,
Aanvallig, dierbaar beeld!
 
Heeft net de stille sluimer
Gesloten mijn ogen, loom,
Dan sluipt het beeld heel zachtjes
Naar binnen in mijn droom!
 
En met de ochtenddromen
Gaat nooit dat beeld te grond':
Dan draag ik in mijn hart het
De hele dag nog rond.
