Nicht wandle, mein Licht, dort außen
im Flurbereich!
Die Füße würden dir, die zarten,
zu naß, zu weich.
All überströmt sind dort die Wege,
die Stege dir;
so überreichlich tränte dorten
das Auge mir.

Llum meva, no et passegis, allà fora
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Llum meva, no et passegis, allà fora,
a l'espai dels camps!
Els teus peus, delicats, es mullarien
i esdevindrien massa tous.
Tots els camins i passeres cap a tu,
estan inundats;
de tant que, allà fora,
ploraven els meus ulls.
