German text

Ruhn Sie? Rufet das Horn des Wächters drüben aus Westen,
und aus Osten das Horn rufet entgegen: Sie ruhn.
Hörst du, zagendes Herz, die flüsternden Stimmen der Engel?
Lösche die Lampe getrost, hülle in Frieden dich ein.

Italian text

Riposano? Risuona il corno del guardiano là a ponente
e da levante risuona in risposta un corno: riposano.
Odi, cuore esitante, le voci degli angeli bisbigliare?
Spegni fiducioso la torcia, lasciati avvolgere dalla pace.
