Original text and translations
German text
- Heil’ge Nacht, du sinkest nieder;
- Nieder wallen auch die Träume
- Wie dein Mondlicht durch die Räume,
- Durch der Menschen stille Brust.
- Die belauschen sie mit Lust;
- Rufen, wenn der Tag erwacht:
- Kehre wieder, heil’ge Nacht!
- Holde Träume, kehret wieder!
