Horch, der Wind klagt in den Zweigen traurig sacht;
süßes Lieb, wir müssen Scheiden: gute Nacht.
Ach wie gern in deinen Armen ruhte ich,
doch die Trennungsstunde naht, Gott schütze dich.
Dunkel ist die Nacht, kein Sternlein spendet Licht;
süßes Lieb vertrau auf Gott und weine nicht;
führt der liebe Gott mich einst zu dir zurück,
bleiben ewig wir vereint in Liebesglück.

Hark, the wind laments in the branches,...
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
Hark, the wind laments in the branches, mournful and soft;
Sweet love, we must part: good night.
Ah, how gladly I rested in your arms,
But the hour of parting is approaching, may God protect you.
Dark is the night: not even a small star gives any light.
Sweet love, trust in God and do not weep;
If our dear God one day leads me back to you,
We will be united forever in love's bliss.
