1. Künftger Zeiten eitler Kummer
 (Sung text)
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Künftger Zeiten eitler Kummer
Stört nicht unsern sanften Schlummer;

Mit dem unbesorgten Leben,
Das der Schöpfer uns gegeben,
Sind wir ruhig und vergnügt.

1. Temps venidors de mers sofriments
Language: Catalan (Català) 
Temps venidors de mers sofriments
no destorben el nostre dolç dormiment;

Amb la vida plàcida

estem tranquils i satisfets.

2. Das zitternde Glänzen
 (Sung text)
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Das zitternde Glänzen
Der spielenden Wellen
Versilbert das Ufer,
beperlet den Strand.
Die rauschenden Flüsse,
die sprudelnden Quellen.
Bereichern, befruchten,
beperlen den Strand.
Und machen in tausend 
vergnügenden Fällen
Die Güte des herrlichen 
Schöpfers bekannt.

2. La tremolosa lluïssor
Language: Catalan (Català) 
La tremolosa lluïssor
de les onades resplendents
argenta els marges,
perleja el ribatge.
Els rius que fressegen,
les fonts que brollen,
enriqueixen, fertilitzen,
perlegen el ribatge.
I amb mil encisadors
saltants, proclamen
la bondat de l'esplèndid Creador.

Canta ànima, a la lloança de Déu,

quan fa florir arbres i camps.
Sigues lloat, sigues glorificat!

Meine Seele
hört im Sehen,
Wie, den Schöpfer

Ist die Sprache der Natur,
Die uns deutlich
durchs Gesicht,
Allenthalben
mit uns spricht.

Language: Catalan (Català) 
La meva ànima 
hi sent tot veient
com, per enaltir

que floreix,
és la veu de la Natura
que, per mitjà de la vista,
explícitament
ens parla
pertot arreu.

7. Die ihr aus dunklen Grüften
 (Sung text)
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die ihr aus dunklen Grüften
Den eitlen Mammon grabt,
Seht, was ihr hier in Lüften
Für reiche Schätze habt.
Sprecht nicht, es ist nur Farb' und Schein,
Man zählt und schließt es nicht im Kasten ein.

Vosaltres, que des d'obscurs sepulcres

A les agradables maleses,
on es barregen llum i ombres,

refrescar-se els ulls i el cor;

el meu ànim content
i lloa la bondat del Creador.
