by Justinus (Andreas Christian) Kerner (1786 - 1862)

Lass dich belauschen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Lass dich belauschen,
Du stille Nacht!
Nur Wasser rauschen,
Nur Liebe wacht.

Vom Walde drüben
Tönt süsser Schall,
Es singt von Lieben
Die Nachtigall.

Der Vogel schweiget,
Der Mond entwich,
Zur Blume neiget
Die Blume sich.

Der Liebe Fülle
Durchströmt die Flur,
In Nacht und Stille
Sinkt die Natur.
