What then must we do?

And it had that song that blows me away every time I hear it. Kiri Te Kanawa did it for the movie. Beim Schlafgehen from Richard Strauss's Four Last Songs.

BEIM SCHLAFGEHEN

Nun der Tag mich mud gemacht
Soll mein sehnliches Verlangen
Freundlich die gestirnte Nacht
Wie ein mudes Kind empgangen.

Handel asst von allem Tun,
Stirn vergiss du alles Denken,
Alle meine Sinne nun
Wollen sich in Schlummer senken.

Und die Seele unbewacht
Will is freien Flugen schweben,
Um im Zauberkreis der Nacht
Tief und tausendfach zu leben.

GOING TO SLEEP

Now the day has wearied me.
And my ardent longing shall
The stormy night in friendship
Enfold like a tired child.

Hands, leave all work;
Brow, forget all thought.
Now all my senses
Long to sink themselves in slumber.

And the soul, unguarded,
Longs to soar on free wings,
So that, in the magic circle of night,
It may live deeply, and a thousandfold.

The link below is a bit of Dialog from the movie transcribed in text.
