Translation by Wilhelm Müller (1794 - 1827)
Alle Winde schlafen
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Italian (Italiano)
Alle Winde schlafen auf dem Spiegel der Flut; kühle Schatten des Abends decken die Müden zu. Luna hängt sich Schleier über ihr Gesicht, schwebt in dämmernden Träumen über die Wasser hin. Alles, alles stille auf dem weiten Meer! Nur mein Herz will nimmer mit zu Ruhe gehn. In der Liebe Fluten treibt es her und hin, wo die Stürme nicht ruhen bis der Nachen sinkt.
J. Eschmann sets stanzas 1-3
