English text
Good night, good night,
adieu, a kind good night.
Sweet sorrow is such parting,
That I can say good night.
Good night, good night,
Till it be morrow;
Good night, good night,
good night, good night.
Good night, good night,
adieu, a kind good night.
Now morning’s light is breaking,
The earth from sleep awaking.
Good night, good night,
Now it is morrow;
Good night, good night,
good night, good night.
