An Gottes Thron
Language: German (Deutsch)

Nachts, wann gute Geister schweifen,
Schlaf dir von der Stirne streifen,
Mondenlicht und Sternenflimmern
Dich mit ewigem All umschimmern,
Scheinst du dir entkörpert schon,
Wagest dich an Gottes Thron.

Al tron de Déu
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
A la nit, quan ronden els bons esperits
i la son t’acaricia el front,
la llum de la lluna i el titil·leig de les estrelles
t’il·luminen amb l’univers etern,
si et sentissis ja incorpori,
gosaries anar al tron de Déu.
