Al mar
 (Sung text translation for setting by R. Franz)
 See original
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
El mar té les seves perles,
el cel les seves estrelles,
però el meu cor, el meu cor,

però més gran és el meu cor,
i més formós que les perles i les estrelles,
brilla i resplendeix el meu amor.
