Die Himmel rühmen des Ewigen Ehre;
  Ihr Schall pflanzt seinen Namen fort.
Ihn rühmt der Erdkreis, ihn preisen die Meere;
  Vernimm, o Mensch, ihr göttlich Wort!

Wer zählt der Himmel unzählbare Sterne?
  Wer führt die Sonn aus ihrem Zelt?
Sie kommt und leuchtet und lacht uns von ferne
  Und läuft den Weg gleich als ein Held.

La gloria de Déu en la natura

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Abt)

See original

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

Els cels lloen l’honor de l’Etern,
l’eco proclama el seu nom enfora.
La terra l’elogia, els mars el lloen;
escolta, oh humà, la seva divina paraula!

Qui sosté els incomptables estels del cel?
Qui guia al sol des del seu refugi?
Arriba i resplendeix i ens somriu de lluny,
i fa el seu camí com un heroi.
