Der Mond scheint auf mein Lager,
Ich schlafe nicht,
Meine gefalteten Hände sie ruhen
In seinem Licht.

Meine Seele ist still, sie kehrte
Von Gott zurück,
Und mein Herz hat nur einen Gedanken:
Dich und dein Glück.

Devot

(Sung text translation for setting by M. Schweikert)

See original

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

La lluna brilla al meu llit.
jo no dormo pas,
les meves mans plegades reposen
en la seva llum.

La meva ànima és tranquil·la,
ella retornà de Déu,
i el meu cor té un sol pensament:
tu i la teva felicitat.
