Thus it is that thy joy in me is so...
Language:
English
Thus it is that thy joy in me is so full.
Thus it is that thou hast come down to me.
O thou lord of all heavens,
where would be thy love if I were not?
Thou hast taken me as thy partner
of all this wealth.
In my heart is the endless play of thy delight.
In my life thy will is ever taking shape.
And for this, thou who art the King of kings
hast decked thyself in beauty
to captivate my heart.
And for this thy love loses itself
in the love of thy lover,
and there art thou seen
in the perfect union of two.

Das ist nun so
Language:
German
Das ist nun so, daß Deine Freude ganz mich ausfüllt.
Das ist nun so, daß Du zu mir herabgekommen bist.
O Du, Herr aller Himmel, wo würde Deine Liebe weilen,
Wenn ich nicht wäre?
Du hast mich als Deinen Partner angenommen,
Mit Dir an allem Reichtum teilzuhaben.
In meinem Herzen spielt Dein unendliches Entzücken,
Und immer wird in meinem Leben Dein Wille Form.
Und dafür hast Du, König aller Könige,
Dich selbst geschmückt mit Schönheit,
Um mein Herz zu fangen.
Und so verliert sich Deine Liebe selbst
In der Geliebten Liebe.
Und so bist Du geoffenbart,
Wenn zwei vollkommen sich vereinen.
