by Carl XV, King of Sweden (1826 - 1872)
Translation by Gottfried von Leinburg (1825 - 1893)

Abends
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Swedish (Svenska) 
Laß den ems'gen Flügel,
O Libelle, ruhn, 
Blumenkelch am Hügel,
Gehe schlafen nun! 
Ruht, ihr grünen Bogen 
All in Busch und Thal,
Ruht, ihr wilden Wogen,
Endlich auch einmal! 
Trinkt den sel'gen Frieden,
Jenen Frieden trinkt,
Der wie Thau hienieden
Abends niedersinkt!

Confirmed with Gedichte von Carl XV. König von Schweden und Norwegen. Übersetzt von Gottfried von Leinburg, Berlin, Allgem. Deutsche Verlags-Anstalt, Sigismund Wolff, 1870, page 27.
