Night Song

Oh, on your soft pillow Dreaming now, half-hear! In my music’s echo Sleep! What would you more? In my music’s echo The starry host appear, Eternal feelings, bless, now: Sleep! What would you more? Eternal feelings, bless, now, Lift me higher and higher, From all earthly beings: oh, Sleep! What would you more? From all earthly beings, oh, You carry me, now, so far, Enchanted by the cool flow: Sleep! What would you more? Enchanted by the cool flow, Dreaming now, you hear. Ah, on your soft pillow, Sleep! What would you more?
