German text
Weil jetzo alles stille ist
und alle Menschen schlafen,
mein' Seel' das ew'ge Licht begrüßt,
ruht wie ein Schiff im Hafen.
Der falsche Fleiß, die Eitelkeit,
was keinen mag erlaben,
darin der Tag das Herz zerstreut,
liegt alles tief begraben.
Ein andrer König wundergleich
mit königlichen Sinnen,
zieht herrlich ein im stillen Reich,
besteigt die ew'gen Zinnen.
English translation
by Mick Swithinbank
CONCORD
Now that all is quiet
and everyone asleep,
my soul greets the eternal light
and rests like a ship in harbour.
Misplaced industriousness, vanity,
which bring nobody solace
but distract the heart by day,
lie buried deep.
Another king, a wondrous one,
whose spirit is truly royal,
enters the silent kingdom in majesty,
climbs the eternal battlements.
