YouTube Description
as posted by the channelVOCES8 sings ‘Nachtlied’ by Max Reger at the VOCES8 Centre in London.
TEXT by Petrus Herbert
Die Nacht ist kommen,
Drin wir ruhen sollen;
Gott wal'ts, zum Frommen
Nach sein'm Wohlgefallen,
Daß wir uns legen
In sein'm G'leit und Segen,
Der Ruh' zu pflegen.
Treib, Herr, von uns fern
Die unreinen Geister,
Halt die Nachtwach' gern,
Sei selbst unser Schützherr,
Schirm beid Leib und Seel'
Unter deinen Flügeln,
Send' uns dein' Engel!
Laß uns einschlafen
Mit guten Gedanken,
Fröhlich aufwachen
Und von dir nicht wanken;
Laß uns mit Züchten
Unser Tun und Dichten
Zu dein'm Preis richten!
TRANSLATION
Night has come,
and in it we shall rest;
God ensures, to our benefit,
by his good will,
that we may lie down
in his guidance and blessing,
to take a rest.
Drive away, Lord,
impure spirits,
keep the vigil gladly,
be our protector yourself,
take both, body and soul,
under Thy wings,
send us Thy angels!
Let us fall asleep
with good thoughts,
awake cheerfully,
and not move away from Thee;
let us with discipline
live and write poems
to Thy praise! .
