So wart bis ich dies dir noch künde: Daß ich dich erbete - begehre. Der tag ohne dich ist die sünde, Der tod um dich ist die ehre. Wenn einen die Finstren erlasen: So schreit ICH die traurige stufe. Die nacht wirft mich hin auf den rasen. Gib antwort dem fliehenden rufe Laß mich in die himmel entschweben! Du heb dich vom grund als gesunder! Bezeuge und preise mein wunder Und harre noch unten im leben!

Mais attends que je te dise ceci encore : Que je te prie -- te désire. Un jour sans toi est un péché, Mourir pour toi est un honneur. Si les ténèbres m'ont choisi : Alors JE franchis la marche triste. La nuit me jette sur l'herbe, Réponds à cet appel implorant... « Laisse-moi être emporté dans le ciel ! Tu te relèveras du sol en bonne santé ! Atteste et loue mon miracle Et reste en vie sur terre ! »
