Der Liebende
 (Sung text for setting by F. Schubert)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE
Beglückt, beglückt,
Wer dich erblickt,
Und deinen Himmel trinket;
Wenn dein Gesicht
Voll Engellicht
Den Gruß des Friedens winket.

Ein süsser Blick,
Ein Wink, ein Nick,
Glänzt mir wie Frühlingssonnen;
Den ganzen Tag
Sinn' ich ihm nach,
Und schweb' in Himmelswonnen.

Dein holdes Bild
Führt mich so mild
An sanfter Blumenkette;
In meinem Arm
Erwacht es warm,
Und geht mit mir zu Bette.

Beglückt, beglückt,
Wer dich erblickt,
Und deinen Himmel trinket;
Wem süsser Blick
Und Wink und Nick
Zum süssern Kusse winket.

This is the version of Hölty's poem heavily reworked by Voß. For the original version, see below.

L'enamorat
 (Sung text translation for setting by F. Schubert)
 See original
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Feliç, feliç,
qui t’albira
i s’abeura en el teu cel;
a qui el teu rostre
reblert de llum dels àngels,
fa senyals de salutació de pau.

Un dolç esguard,
un senyal, un consentiment,
llueixen per a mi com el sol de primavera;
tot el dia hi penso i repenso
surant en delits celestials.

La teva encisadora imatge
em menava tan suaument
amb una gentil cadena de flors;
als meus braços,
amb l’escalfor es despertarà
i anirà amb mi al llit.

Feliç, feliç,
qui t’albira
i s’abeura en el teu cel;
a qui un dolç esguard,
i un senyal, i un consentiment,
inviten a les besades més dolces.
