Zuversicht

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

Nach oben mußt du blicken,
gedrücktes, wundes Herz,
dann wandelt in Entzücken
sich bald dein tiefster Schmerz.

Froh darfst du Hoffnung fassen,
wie hoch die Flut auch treibt.
Wie wärst du denn verlassen,
wenn dir die Liebe bleibt?

Confiance

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Tu dois regarder vers le haut,
Cœur déprimé, blessé,
Alors en ravissement sera transformé
Bientôt ton profond chagrin.

Joyeusement tu peux prendre confiance,
Quelle que soit la hauteur des eaux.
Comment pourrais-tu être délaissé,
Si tu as encore l'amour ?
