Original text and translations

German text

Lobe den Herren, den mächtigen König der Ehren,
Meine geliebete Seele, das ist mein Begehren.
Kommet zu Hauf,
Psalter und Harfen, wacht auf!
Lasset den Lobgesang hören!

Italian text

Lodate Dio, schiere beate del cielo
Lodate Dio, genti di tutta la terra
Cantate a Lui che l’universo creò,
Somma sapienza e splendore.
