Ich werde nicht an deinem Herzen satt

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: FRE

Ich werde nicht an deinem Herzen satt, 
Nicht satt an deiner Küsse Glutergießen. 
Ich will dich, wie der Christ den Heiland hat:
Er darf als Mahl den Leib des Herrn genießen.
So will ich dich, o meine Gottheit haben, 
In meinem Blut dein Fleisch und Blut begraben.
So will ich deinen süßen leib empfangen,
Bis du in mir und ich in dir vergangen.

Je ne serai jamais rassasiée de ton cœur

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Je ne serai jamais rassasiée de ton cœur
Jamais rassasiée par l'épanchement de braise de tes baisers.
Je te veux comme le fit le Christ Sauveur :
Il put dans un repas, goûter au corps du Seigneur.
C'est ainsi que veux t'avoir, ô ma divinité,
Engloutir ta chair et ton sang dans mon sang.
Ainsi j'accueillerai ton tendre corps,
Jusqu'à notre disparition, toi en moi et moi en toi.
