Wanderers Nachtlied, D.768

English translation

Wanderer's nightsong, D.768

Über allen Gipfeln

Over all the peaks

Ist Ruh,

there is silence,

In allen Wipfeln

In all the treetops

Spürest du

You feel

Kaum einen Hauch;

Barely a breeze;

Die Vögelein schweigen im Walde

The birds are silent in the forest

Warte nur, balde

Just wait, soon

Ruhest du auch.

You also will rest.
