Ach daß ich wüßte, wie ich ihn finden und zu seinem Stuhl kommen möchte
¡Quién me diera el saber dónde hallar a Dios! Yo iría hasta su silla.
¡Si supiera dónde encontrarlo! Llegaría hasta su morada.
Oh! si je savais où le trouver, Si je pouvais arriver jusqu'à son trône,
Oh! sapessi io pure ove trovare Iddio! Io andrei infino al suo trono;
Ah, se eu soubesse onde o poderia achar! Então me chegaria ao seu tribunal.
惟願我知道哪裏可以尋見上帝, 能到他的臺前,
