Language: German (Deutsch) 
Hoch auf dem alten Thurme steht
Des Helden edler Geist,
Der, wie das Schiff vorübergeht,
Es wohl zu [fahren]1 heißt.

"Sieh, diese [Senne]2 war so stark,
Dieß Herz so fest und wild,
Die Knochen voll von Rittermark,
Der Becher angefüllt;

"Mein halbes Leben stürmt' ich fort,
Verdehnt' die Hälft' in Ruh,
Und du, du Menschen-Schifflein dort,
Fahr' immer, immer zu!"

1. Salutacions d’un esperit
Language: Catalan (Català) 
A dalt de l’antiga torre s’està
el noble esperit d’un heroi
que, quan un vaixell passa pel davant,
li desitja bon viatge.

“Guaita, aquests muscles eren ben forts,
aquest cor ben ferm i fogós,
els ossos farcits de moll cavalleresc,
la copa sempre ben plena;

la meitat de la meva vida l’he passat
batallant i l’altra meitat en pau
i tu, petit vaixell dels homes,
navega per sempre, sense parar!”

Über allen [Gipfeln]1

Ruhest du auch.3

Confirmed with Goethe's Werke. Vollständige Ausgabe letzter Hand. Erster Band. Stuttgart und Tübingen, in der J.G.Cotta'schen Buchhandlung. 1827, page 109; and with Goethe's Werke. Erster Band. Stuttgart und Tübingen, in der J. G. Cotta'schen Buchhandlung. 1815, page 99.

Note: in many older editions, the spelling of the capitalized word "über" becomes "Ueber", but this is often due to the printing process and not to rules of orthography, since the lower-case version is not "ueber", so we use "Über".

See also J.D. Falk's poem Unter allen Wipfeln ist Ruh.

1 Flügel, Gaugler, Hasse, Radecke: "Wipfeln" (according to the incipits given in Hofmeister) ; further changes may exist not noted above.
2 Greith, Schubert: "Vöglein"
3 Lachner adds
Über allen Wipfeln
Ist Ruh',
Balde
Ruhest du auch.

by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749 - 1832)
2.
Language: Catalan (Català) 
Damunt tots els cims
regna la pau,
en totes les capçades
perceps a penes
una alenada;
al bosc els ocellets callen,
espera només, aviat
reposaràs tu també.

Language: Catalan (Català) 
Ets com una flor
Tan graciosa i bella i pura
Et miro, i la nostàlgia
Llisca dins el meu cor.

Em sento, com si les mans
Sobre el teu cap hagués de posar
pregant, que Déu et preservi,
tan pura i bella i graciosa.
