Good night, good night, my dearest treasure
Good night, sleep well, my child!
May the angels guard you all
Who are in heaven!
Good night, good night, my dear treasure
Sleep gently through the night

Sleep well, sleep well and dream of me
Dream of me tonight!
So that, even when I sleep
My heart still watches over you
That it, in pure love's glow
Thinks of you at this time

The nightingale sings in the bush
In the clear moonlight
The moon shines into your window
Looks into your little room
The moon watches you in your slumber there
But I must go alone!
