All' meine Herzgedanken

(Sung text for setting by J. Grimm)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

All meine Herzgedanken
Sind immerdar bei dir;
Das ist das stille Kranken,
Das innen zehrt an mir.
Da du mich einst umfangen hast,
Ist mir gewichen Ruh und Rast.
All meine Herzgedanken
Sind immerdar bei dir.

Der Maßlieb und der Rosen
Begehr' ich fürder nicht.
Wie soll ich Lust erlosen,
Da Liebe mir gebricht!
Seit du von mir geschieden bist,
Hab ich gelacht zu keiner Frist;
Der Maßlieb und der Rosen
Begehr' ich fürder nicht.

Gott wolle Die vereinen,
Die für einander sind!
Von Grämen und von Weinen
Wird sonst das Auge blind.
Treuliebe steht in Himmelshut;
Es wird noch Alles, Alles gut.
Gott wolle die vereinen,
Die für einander sind!

All the thoughts of my heart

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Grimm)

See original

Language: English after the German (Deutsch)

All the thoughts of my heart
Are forever with you;
That is the silent illness,
That consumes me on the inside.
Since you once embraced me,
Peace and rest have left me.
All the thoughts of my heart
Are forever with you.

For speedwell and for roses
I no long yearn,
How am I to win joy
Since I am lacking love?
Since you parted from me,
I have not laughed for a single moment;
For speedwell and for roses
I no long yearn.

May God unite those
Who are meant for one another!
Otherwise the eyes shall become blind
From sorrowing and weeping.
True love is in Heaven's keeping;
Everything, everything shall still come out right.
May God unite those
Who are meant for one another!
