Kling leise, mein Lied
고요하게 울려라, 나의 노래

Original text: Johann Rumpelmeyer (Johannes Nordmann)
Music: Franz Liszt, "Kling leise, mein Lied", S301 no. 2





Sound softly, my song

Sound softly, my song, through the silence of night, 
Sound softly or else my beloved will wake.
Carefully, up to her windows arise 
Sound softly, my song, or repose will awake.
Sound softly, my song, Sound softly and gently (mildly)
That not to awaken the beloved.

Embrace her gently, like the vine trees
In love with the wraps in blossoming dreams; 
And sing ecstatically as the nightingales sing
When to roses a serenade they would bring. 

Awaken her not with too stormy greeting. 
Step carefully to her as if pilgrims feet
Tread through the holiest temple there, 
And quietly greet with the murmur of prayer.

Sound softly, my song, through the silent night,
Sound softly that not to awaken the beloved!
Carefully, up to her windows arise,
Sound softly, my song,
Carefully, up to her windows arise,
Quietly and gently,
That not to awaken the beloved!
That not to awaken the beloved!
O, do not wake!
