Verbirg dich, Sonne, Denn die Gluthen der Wonne Versengen mein Gebein; Verstummet Töne, Frühlings Schöne Flüchte dich, und laß mich allein! Quillen doch aus allen Falten Meiner Seele liebliche Gewalten; Die mich umschlingen, Himmlisch singen - Geh' unter Welt, und störe Nimmer die süßen ätherischen Chöre!
Confirmed with Gedichte von Johann Mayrhofer. Wien. Bey Friedrich Volke. 1824, page 122.

Hide yourself, o sun, for the glow of bliss burns my entire being. Be silent, sounds; Spring beauty, go away and leave me alone! Welling up from every recess of my soul are pleasing powers that envelop me, with heavenly singing. End, world, and never disturb the sweet, ethereal choir again.
