Die Schwalbe schwingt zum Abendliede
sich auf das Stänglein unterm Dach,
im Feld un in der Stadt ist Friede,
Fried is im Haus un im Gemach.

Ein Schimmer fällt vom Abendrote
leis in dei stille Straß heiein,
und corm Entschlafen sagt der Bote,
es werd ein schöner Morgen sein!

- Friedrich Rückert


English.png English translation

The swallow soars for its evening song
to the perch under the roof,
peace lies over the fields and in the town,
peace is in the house and in the chamber.

A shimmer from the sunset falls
softly into the quiet street,
and before dying away the messenger says,
it will be a beautiful morning!
