Thou shalt climb from song to sleep;
From sleep to dream and song once more;—
Sleep well, sweet friend, sleep well, dream deep!”

“Festen Muth in schwerem Leiden,
Hülfe, wo die Unschuld weint,
Ewigkeit geschwor’nen Eiden,
Wahrheit gegen Freund und Feind,
Männerstolz vor Königsthronen, –
Brüder, gält es Gut und Blut –
Dem Verdienste seine Kronen,
Untergang der Lügenbrut!”

“The wild deer, wand’ring here and there,
Keeps the human soul from care.
The lamb misus’d breeds public strife,
And yet forgives the butcher’s knife.”
