Original text and translations

English text

Gently evening bendeth
Over dale and hill,
Softly peace descendeth
And the world is still.

Save the wood-brook’s gushing
All things silent rest,
Hear its restless rushing
On to ocean’s breast.

Restless life thus floweth,
Striveth in my breast,
God alone bestoweth
Tranquil evening rest.
