Mais que feroy‑ie plus au Monde?

Language: French (Français)

Our translations: ITA

Mais que feroy-ie plus au Monde,
Qui en Monde de maux abonde?
Adieu Monde, adieu tes débats,
Tes cris, tes assauts, tes combats:

Vérité, la retraite sonne!
L'Eternel tire à soy mon coeur
(Par foi de ta force vainqueur)
Et de sa gloire me couronne.

Ma cosa, per il mondo, da fare rimane

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the French (Français)

Ma cosa, per il mondo, da fare rimane
per il Mondo che di mali ne ha molti?
Addio, Mondo,  alle tue discussioni vane,
alle tue grida, alle tue guerre, ai tuoi  assalti:

Verità, la ritirata suona!
L'Eterno il mio cuore ha conquistato
(Per fiducia nella sua forza vittoriosa)
E dalla gloria sono incoronato.
