Inscription

Hier ruht in Frieden
August Voeks

Ruhe Sanft

Eingesargt zum letzten Schlummer.
Bleich im weissen Sterbekleid.
Frei von Schmerzen und von Kummer.
Seh ich Dich im stillem Leid,
Dich getreuer Vater du:
Schlafe sanft im stillen Grunde
Bis zur Auferstehungsstunde.

Here rests in peace
August Voeks

Rest in Peace

Buried for your final rest,
pale and wrapped in the white cloth of death.
Free of pain and sorrow.
I see you in silent grief,
you oh faithful father.
Sleep gently in the silent ground
until the resurrection hour.
