Ach, wende diesen Blick, wende dies...

Available translation(s): CAT DUT ENG ENG FRE
Ach, wende diesen Blick, wende dies Angesicht!
Das Inn're mir mit ewig neuer Glut,
Mit ewig neuem Harm erfülle nicht!
Wenn einmal die gequälte Seele ruht,
Und mit so fieberischer Wilde nicht
In meinen Adern rollt das heiße Blut -
Ein Strahl, ein flüchtiger, von deinem Licht,
Er wecket auf des Wehs gesamte Wut,
Das [schlangenhaft]1 mich in das Herze sticht.

Ai, aparta aquest esguard, gira aquest...
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Ai, aparta aquest esguard, gira aquest rostre!
No omplis el meu interior amb sempre un nou fervor,
amb sempre una nova aflicció!
Quan finalment l’ànima turmentada reposa,
i amb menys ímpetu febril corre
per les meves venes la sang ardent –
un raig fugaç de la teva llum,
desperta tota la fúria del meu dolor
i mossega el meu cor com una serp.
