Wie die jungen Blüthen leise träumen In der stillen Mitternacht! Schüchtern spielt der Mondschein in den Bäumen, Daß die Blüthe nicht erwacht. So auch flüstert, was ich sing' und sage, Ziehet wie das Mondenlicht Leise hin durch deine Blüthentage, Und mein Lied, es stört dich nicht.

How the young blossoms dream quietly In the silent midnight! The moonlight frolics timidly in the trees So that the blossom does not waken. Thus also whispers what I sing and say, Passes like the moonlight Quietly through your blossom-days, And my song, it does not disturb you.
