Quanto amabili sono le tue dimore
Language: Italian (Italiano)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Quanto amabili sono le tue dimore Signore dell' universo!
L'anima mia ti desidera ardentemente
e vuole trovare in te il suo rifugio;
Corpo ed anima si rallegrano
In seno al Dio vivente.

Quanto amabili sono le tue dimore Signore dell' universo!
Beato chi nella tua casa dimora:
cantando le tue lodi in eterno!
Quanto amabili sono le tue dimore!
