Down falls the dew on the grass
Where the winds hide the years a-creeping
There in the shade of the willow leaves
Soft and calm lies my Miriel a-sleeping

Dreams, sweet dreams, my love,
Stars will shine above,
All the cares are gone
From the night till dawn.

Let birds around have spread their wings
To keep up your peaceful dreamings,
Sweet flower scents will remind the days
Of our joy and happy feelings
Only in my heart
We should never part
May the love bell chime
To the end of time
