Devotionale
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): ENG FRE FRE
Schöne du, Erbarmerin,
Weil mir deine Augen lachen:
Nimm mein Lied in Gnaden hin -
Schöne du, Erbarmerin.
Nimm mein Herz in deine Hand,
Wieg mein Lied in Trost und Träume,
Schöne, himmelhergesandt,
Nimm mein Herz in deine Hand.
Alles wird dann ruhig sein,
Denn die Heimat ist gefunden.
Kehrt mein Herz in deinem ein,
Alles wird dann ruhig sein.

Devotional
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
Lovely one, merciful one,
Because your eyes smile upon me:
Accept my song with grace -
Lovely one, merciful one.
Take my heart into your hand,
Rock my song in solace and dreams,
Lovely one, sent to me from heaven,
Take my heart into your hand.
Everything will then be at peace,
For the homeland has been found.
If my heart enters into yours,
Everything will then be at peace.
