by Emanuel von Geibel (1815 - 1884), as Don Manuel de Rio
Translation © by Salvador Pila

Mühvoll komm' ich und beladen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE
Mühvoll komm' ich und beladen,
Nimm mich an, du Hort der Gnaden!
 
Sieh, ich komm' in Thränen heiß
Mit demüthiger Geberde,
Dunkel ganz vom Staub der Erde.
Du nur schaffest, daß ich weiß
Wie das Vließ der Lämmer werde.
Tilgen willst du ja den Schaden
Dem, der reuig dich umfaßt;
Nimm denn, Herr, von mir die Last,
Mühvoll komm' ich und beladen.
 
Laß mich flehend vor dir knie'n,
Daß ich über deine Füße
Nardenduft und Thränen gieße,
Gleich dem Weib, dem du verzieh'n,
Bis die Schuld wie Rauch zerfließe.
Der den Schächer du geladen:
"Heute noch in Edens Bann
Wirst du sein!" o nimm mich an,
Nimm mich an, du Hort der Gnaden!

He vingut amb una gran pena i afeixugat
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
He vingut amb una gran pena i afeixugat,
acull-me, tu redós de la gràcia!

Mira, vinc amb llàgrimes fervents
i amb una actitud humil,
completament ennegrit per la pols de la terra.
Només tu pots fer que esdevingui blanc
com el velló dels anyells.
Tu cancel·laràs els mals
de qui, penedit, t’abraça;
lleva’m, Senyor, aquesta càrrega,
he vingut amb una gran pena i afeixugat.

Deixa que implorant m’agenolli al teu davant,
que damunt dels teus peus
vessi perfum de nard i llàgrimes,
com la dona que perdonares,
fins que la meva culpa s’esvaeixi com el fum.
Tu que digueres al lladre bo crucificat:
“Avui tu seràs al regne
del Paradís!” Oh, acull-me,
acull-me, tu redós de la gràcia!
