Turning Towards the Morning

As dawn hints, we begin to turn towards the morning. In a peaceful rendition of "Nacht und Träume", we are prepared for our eventual wake.

Nacht und Träume

Composed: Franz Schubert

Poem: Matthäus von Collin

[German]
Heil’ge Nacht, du sinkest nieder;
Nieder wallen auch die Träume
Wie dein Mondlicht durch die Räume,
Durch der Menschen stille Brust.
Die belauschen sie mit Lust;
Rufen, wenn der Tag erwacht:
Kehre wieder, heil’ge Nacht!
Holde Träume, kehret wieder!

​

[English]
Holy night, you sink down;
Down also float dreams
Like your moonlight through space
Through the silent breast of men.
They listen with delight,
Calling, when the day awakes:
Come back, holy night!
Come back, fair dreams!
