Natten er så stille
Language: Danish (Dansk)
Natten er så stille luften er så klar duggens perler trille månens stråler spille henad søens glar. Bølgens melodier vugge hjertet ind, suk og klage tier, vindens pust befrier det betyngte sind.

Barcarole
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Danish (Dansk)
Süße Nacht! Wie schweiget rings die Luft so lau! Mond sein Antlitz neiget, aus dem Wasser steiget leise auf der Tau. Wellenmelodien wiegen ein das Herz; Klag' und Seufzer fliehen, milde Lüfte ziehen, streben himmelwärts.
