Quiet night 
Fading light 
Watch the moon shining bright 
Gaze at the stars with all delight 
Lay still my heart 
Lay still my heart 

The splendour of the night 
The soul finds solace in the Light 
No one questions the solitude's might 
For there lie still a quiet delight 
Lay still my heart 
Lay still my heart 

Dare not raise your voice 
Dare not even make a noise 
Hush, hush ... and take your poise 
The banner of serenity is now  hoist 
Lay still my heart 
Lay still my heart 

In the splendour of the night 
The Light shines ever so bright 
My soul finds solace and delight 
In the quiet stillness of the night 

Lay still my heart 
Lay still my heart
