by Theodor Storm (1817 - 1888)
Gode Nacht
Language: Plattdeutsch
Över de stillen Straten Geit klar de Klokkenslag; God Nacht! Din Hart will slapen, Und morgen is ok en Dag. Din Kind liggt in de Weegen, Un ik bün ok bi di; Din Sorgen un din Leven Ist allens um un bi. Noch eenmal lat uns spräken: Goden Abend, gode Nacht! De Maand schient ob de Däken, Uns' Herrgott hölt de Wacht.
