4. Nachtlied  [sung text not yet checked]
Der Mond kommt still gegangen Mit seinem [goldnen Schein]1, Da schläft [in]2 holdem Prangen Die müde Erde ein. Im Traum die Wipfel weben, Die Quellen rauschen sacht; Singende Engel durchschweben Die [blaue]3 Sternennacht Und auf den Lüften schwanken Aus manchem treuen Sinn Viel tausend Liebesgedanken Über [die]4 Schläfer hin. [Und]5 drunten im [Thale, da funkeln]6 Die Fenster von Liebchens Haus; Ich aber [blicke]7 im Dunkeln Still in die [Welt]8 hinaus.
