English translation:
Jesu, my joy,
the pasture of my heart,
Jesu, my desire,
oh how long, how long
has my heart been afeared
and yearning for you!
Lamb of God, my bridegroom,
nothing else on earth shall be
dearer to me than you.
Under your protection
from the attacks
of all foes I am freed.
Let Satan scent his quarry,
let the foe be incensed,
Jesus shall stand by me.
Though thunderbolts and lightning strike,
though sin and hell may terrify,
Jesus will protect me.
Despite the ancient dragon,
despite vengeful death,
despite the fearfulness!
Rage, earth, and burst asunder,
I stand here and sing,
my utter peace assured.
The power of God holds me in his care,
earth and abyss must fall silent
however loud their thunder.
Away with all treasures,
you are my delight,
Jesu, my desire.
Away, vain glories,
I will not heed you,
let me not perceive you!
Misery, want, cross, shame and death
shall not, though I must suffer greatly,
part me from Jesus.
Good night, O existence,
that the world has chosen,
you hold no pleasure for me.
Good night, you sins,
remain far distant,
come no more into the light.
Good night, pride and pomp,
all the trappings of this tedious life,
may you be bidden good night.
Retreat, you sorrowful spirits,
for my lord of joy
Jesus enters;
to those who love God
their grieving must also
be nothing but sweetness.
Though I endure here scorn and derision,
you still suffer also,
Jesu, my joy.
Great Dieterich! We are in the Heaven with singing angels .
Definitely one of the best performances I have heard. Clear, sharp, emotive and stylistically faithful.
