Original text and translations

Latin.png Latin text

Ego plorans, et oculus meus deducens aquas,
quia longe factus est a me consolator.
Vide, domine, afflictionem meam,
et miserere mei.

German.png German translation

Ich weine, und aus meinen Augen fließen Tränen,
denn fern von mir ist ein Tröster.
Sieh an, Herr, mein Elend,
und erbarme dich meiner.

Translation by Gerhard Weydt

I weep; my eyes flow with tears;
for a comforter is far from me.
Behold my affliction, O Lord,
and have mercy on me.
