Du bist die Ruh,
Der Friede mild,
Die Sehnsucht du,
Und was sie stillt.
Ich weihe dir
Voll Lust und Schmerz
Zur Wohnung hier
Mein Aug' und Herz.
Kehr' bei mir ein,
Und schließe du
Still hinter dir
Die Pforten zu.
Treib andern Schmerz
Aus dieser Brust.
Voll sey dies Herz
Voll deiner Lust.

Eres paz,
la suave paz
Que tanto deseas
Y que la hace tan quieta.
Me consagro a ti
Lleno de placer y de dolor
Y habitas aquí
En mis ojos y mi corazón.
Ven a vivir conmigo
Y cierra
Calladamente tras de ti
Las puertas
Saca todo el dolor
Fuera de este pecho
Que se llene mi corazón
De tu placer.
