Oh, do not sleep friend, through this night.
You a soul, while we are suffring through this night
Banish slumber from your eyes!
The great secret is revealed in this night.
You are Jove in the high heavens,
Round heavns starry dome you circle in this night!
Like an eagle fly above!
Now a hero is your soul in this night.
Such a quiet, others sleep
I and God alone together in this night!
What a roar! Joy arises,
Truth with gleaming wing is shining in this night!
Do not sleep friend,
If I slumbered until sunrise,
I should never, never see this night again!
Thorough fares on earth are silent.
There behold the starry roads of this night.
