Sleep now, O sleep now,

O you unquiet heart!

A voice crying "Sleep now"

Is heard in my heart.



The voice of the winter

Is heard at the door.

O sleep, for the winter

Is crying "Sleep no more."





My kiss will give peace now

And quiet to your heart -- -

Sleep on in peace now,

O you unquiet heart!
