Du meine Liebe, du mein Herz,
Du meine Wonn', o du mein Schmerz,
Du meine Welt, in der ich lebe,
Mein Himmel du, darein ich schwebe,
O du mein Grab, in das hinab
Ich ewig meinen Kummer gab!
Du bist die Ruh, du bist der Frieden,
Du bist der Himmel, mir beschieden.
Wenn du mich liebest, macht mich mir werth,
Dein Blick hat mich vor mir verklärt,
Du hebst mich liebend über mich,
Mein guter Geist, mein beßres Ich!

Jij mijn bezieling

(Sung text translation for setting by B. Bartók)

See original

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

Jij mijn bezieling
beminde, jij mijn hart,
Jij mijn verrukking, jij mijn smart,
Jij de planeet waarop 'k mag leven,
De hemel ook waarnaar 'k mag zweven,
O, jij mijn graf, waarin ik borg
Voor eeuwig mijn verdriet en zorg.
Jij bent de rust, jij bent de vrede,
Jij bent de hemel, nu mijn heden.
Jij houdt van mij, 'k word zó beloond;
Jouw blik heeft mij mijzelf getoond.
Jij tilt mij uit boven mijzelf,
Mijn goede geest, mijn beet're helft!
