Veia digl Pader 11: L’orma tgi reiva tar

L'orma tgi reiva tar Dia

Va cartia, Signer; ainten Tè;

oz cuntaimpla chegl tg'ia va cartia.

La cardentscha am ò fatg biia;

Sainza vel resplenda la verdad.

Va spero, o Signer, ainten Tè.

Chegl tg'ia va spero, va cuntanschia.

Giubilond vai'ossa deponia

la mi'crousch davant igls peis digl Bab.

Tè, o Signer, vaia carezzo.

Sur la sferas igl mies spiert sa meida

An sbrinslonta steila tgi sa veida

ve da Tè, suglegl d'etern amour.

Fr. Alexander Lozza

Return of the soul to God     

I have believed, O Lord, in my days;

now I look in amazement at what faith saw.

In faith, salvation was close to me,

but now truth is revealed to all questions.

I have hoped for Thee, O Lord, in my life;

and what I hoped for, God, is now in me.

Rejoicing, Father, have at your feet,

I gave up my cross and all suffering.

My heart has loved you with every impulse.

My mind transforms and circles far away

in other worlds – light-filled star,

kindled in you, sun of constant love.
