German:
O tod, wie bitter bist du, wenn an dich gendenket ein mensch,
Der gute Tage und genug hat und ohne sorge lebet;
Und dem es wohl geht in allen dingen ,und noch wohl essen mag!
O Tod, wie bitter bist du.
O tod, wie wohl tust du dem dürftigen, der da schwach und alt ist,
der in allen sorgen steckt, und nichts bessers zu hoffen,
noch zu erwarten hat! O tod, O tod, wie wohl tust du!
English:
O death, how bitter you are to the thoughts of a person at peace with his posses-sions, to a man undistracted and prospering in everything and still having strength to welcome a luxury.
O death, how bitter you are!
O death, how sweet you are to a person who is needy and lacking strength, who is in extreme old age and is anxious about everything and who is disobedient and has lost hope.
O death, how sweet you are!
