Reinheit
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT
Deiner Liebe goldene Güte 
  Trägst du lächelnd durch meine Tage,
  Daß ich kaum zu atmen wage
Den Duft so junger Blüte.

Nur meine Augen freu'n sich dein,
Die Seele ist so still, so rein,
  Ein Abendteich, aus dessen Flut
  Der Schimmer hoher Sterne ruht.

Puresa
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
La bondat del teu daurat amor
la portes somrient a través dels meus dies,
talment que a penes goso respirar
la flaire d’una flor tan novella.

Només els meus ulls gaudeixen de tu,
la teva ànima tan plàcida, tan pura,
com un estany al capvespre, on a les seves aigües,
reposa el besllum de les altes estrelles.
