Available translation(s): ENG FRE
Gute Nacht, geliebtes Leben,
Ruf' ich dir ins Fensterlein,
Und dann geh' ich meiner Wege --
Ach, im Traum gedenke mein!
Denn du weißt ja, dir ergeben
Muß mein Herz in Qualen beben;
Gute Nacht, geliebtes Leben --
Ach, im Traum gedenke mein!

Sérénade
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Bonne nuit, ma vie bien-aimée,
Je t'appelle à la fenêtre
Et puis je passe mon chemin.
Ah, pense à moi dans tes rêves !
Car le tu sais bien, mon cœur qui t'est soumis
Devra trembler dans les tourments.
Bonne nuit, ma vie bien-aimée,
Ah, pense à moi dans tes rêves !
