## The words

Mutter, o sing’ mich zur Ruh’, wie auch in  
schöneren Stunden, sing’ meinem Herzen,  
dem wunden, tröstende Lieder sing’ Du!  
Drücke die Augen mir zu! Blumen die Häupter  
jetzt neigen; Trauernde rasten und  
schweigen, Mutter, o sing’ mich zur Ruh!  
Bette dein Vögelchen Du! Stürme,  
ach! haben’s entfiedert; Liebe,  
sie drückt unerwiedert; Mutter,  
o sing’ mich zur Ruh’!
