Fritz Reiner conducting the London Philharmonic Orchestra 1936
"Einsam wachend
in der Nacht,
wem der Traum
der Liebe lacht,
hab der einen
Ruf in acht,
die den Schläfern
Schlimmes ahnt,
bange zum
Erwachen mahnt.
Habet acht!
Habet acht!
Bald entweicht die Nacht."
"You upon whom
love's dream smiles,
take heed of
the voice of one
keeping solitary
watch at night,
foreseeing evil
for the sleepers,
anxiously urging
you to waken.
Beware!
Beware!
Night soon melts away."

BRANGÄNENS STIMMEvon der Zinne her
Einsam wachend
in der Nacht,
wem der Traum
der Liebe lacht,
hab der Einen
Ruf in acht,
die den Schläfern
Schlimmes ahnt,
bange zum
Erwachen mahnt.
Habet acht!
Habet acht!
Bald entweicht die Nacht.
