English text

1.
Stars of the summer night,
Far in yon azure deep,
Hide, hide your golden light,
She sleeps, my lady sleeps.
 
2.
Moon of the summer night,
Far down yon western steeps,
Sink, sink in silver light,
She sleeps, my lady sleeps.

3. Dreams of the summer night,
Tell her, her lover keeps
Watch, while, in slumber light,
She sleeps, my lady sleeps.
