Gute Nacht, mein Herz, gute Nacht und schlummre ein!
In diesen Herbstestagen
Ohne Blumen und Sonnenschein
Was willst du schlagen?

Dein Schmerz ist aus, deine Lust ist tot,
Verweht sind Lenz und Lieder;
Der Liebe Röslein purpurroth
Blüht nimmer wieder.

Singend zog er ins Land hinein,
Der falsche, liebe Knabe --
Und du? - Im stillen Grabe
Schlafe mein Herz, schlaf' ein!

Composition:

Walter Courvoisier
