Kniend im Staube lieg ich vor dir,

Cançó damor

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

M'agenollo a la pols devant teu, 
Tu ets la meva fe i el meu breviari.
Tu ets el meu amor, ets el meu refugi,
la meva esperança allà dalt. Allà, al meu cel.

Ets la meva veritat i ets el meu somni. 
Ets el coneixement en temps i lloc.
Tu ets el bé, la cosa en sí.
Tu ets la bellesa. T'estimo.
