by Théaulon de Lambert (1787 - 1841)
Translation by Anonymous / Unidentified Author

Schlummerlied aus Rothkäppchen von Boïeldieu
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the French (Français) 
Schlaf', schlaf' in Ruh',
umschwebt von süßen Träumen!
Der Abendglocken Klingen
ist längst ja schon verhallt.
Still ist der Wald, 
still sind Fluren und Haine,
Schlummer umfängt die müde Welt
und wiegt auch dich selig ein.
In Frieden schlaf',
schlafe in süßer Ruh'!
Wie liegt die Welt so ferne
mit ihrer Lust und ihrer Pein;
vom Himmel nur schauen die Sterne
still und ernst herein.
