Komm süßer Tod, komm selge Ruh!
Komm, führe mich in Friede,
weil ich der Welt bin müde,
komm, ich wart auf dich,
komm bald und führe mich,
drück mir die Augen zu
Komm selge Ruh!

Come, sweet death, come blessed rest!
Come, lead me to peace,
as I am weary of the world,
come, I wait for you,
come soon and lead me,
close my eyes shut
Come blessed rest!
