Zuversicht
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE
Nach oben mußt du blicken,
gedrücktes, wundes Herz,
dann wandelt in Entzücken
sich bald dein tiefster Schmerz.

Froh darfst du Hoffnung fassen,
wie hoch die Flut auch treibt.
Wie wärst du denn verlassen,
wenn dir die Liebe bleibt?

Ferma esperança
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Has d’esguardar cap amunt,
cor oprimit, ferit,
aleshores, ben aviat es transformarà en encís
el teu profund dolor.

Joiós, pots tenir esperança,
per alta que arribi l’aigua,
com podries estar desemparat
si et resta encara l’amor?
