Žehnání se světemEnglish translation of the so-far recorded verses

 

Oh, how is my heart burning!

Oh, it is a wonder that it does not burn to ashes!

I was born to this world through love,

and love was born with me,

my life is loving,

and my death is also loving.

 

The one who was dying for me,

he opened the door to true love.

I am hurrying to him ethusiastically,

to live in/for him forever.

Oh, most happy love!

Oh, most pleasurable joy.
