Today's famous classical duet can be downloaded here. For more information look here, here and here. Enjoy!

Here are the words, in German:

Abends, will ich schlafen gehn,vierzehn Engel um mich stehn:zwei zu meinen Häupten,zwei zu meinen Füßen,zwei zu meiner Rechten,zwei zu meiner Linken,zwei die mich decken,zwei, die mich wecken,zwei, die mich weisenzu Himmels Paradeisen!

And now the English translation:

When at night I go to sleep,Fourteen angels watch do keep,Two my head are guarding,Two my feet are guiding;Two upon my right hand,Two upon my left hand.Two who warmly coverTwo who o’er me hover,Two to whom ’tis givenTo guide my steps to heaven.
