Angst und hoffen wechselnd mich...

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT ENG FRE ITA

Angst und hoffen wechselnd mich beklemmen ·
Meine worte sich in seufzer dehnen ·
Mich bedrängt so ungestümes sehnen
Dass ich mich an rast und schlaf nicht kehre
Dass mein lager tränen schwemmen
Dass ich jede freude von mir wehre
Dass ich keines freundes trost begehre.

Angoixa i esperança m'oprimeixen alternadament

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

Angoixa i esperança m'oprimeixen alternadament,
les meves paraules es clouen en sospirs,
aital ardent desig m'assetja
que, en retorn, no trobo son ni repòs,
que les llàgrimes inunden el meu llit,
que jo qualsevol goig de mi allunyo,
que no desitjo el consol de cap amic.
