Deinem Blick mich zu bequemen,
Deinem Munde, deiner Brust,
Deine Stimme zu vernehmen
War die letzt' und erste Lust.

Gestern, ach, war sie die letzte,
Dann verlosch mir Leucht und Feuer,
Jeder Scherz der mich ergetzte,
Wird nun schuldenschwer und teuer.

Eh' es Allah nicht gefällt,
Uns  ...  zu vereinen,
Gibt mir Sonne, Mond und Welt
Nur Gelegenheit zum Weinen.

Acomodar‑me al teu esguard

(Sung text translation for setting by A. Schoenberg)

See original

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

Acomodar-me al teu esguard,
a la teva boca, al teu pit,
sentir la teva veu
fou el meu darrer i primer goig.

Ahir, ai las, fou el darrer,
llavors per a mi s’extingiren la llum i el foc,
totes les jocositats que abans em delectaven,
em semblen ara carregants i oneroses.

Abans que no li plagui a Al·là
d’unir-nos de nou,
el sol, la lluna i el món tan sols
em donaran l’ocasió de plorar.
