Original text and translations

German text Ich liebe dich, so wie du mich,
Am Abend und am Morgen,
Noch war kein Tag, wo du und ich
Nicht teilten unsre Sorgen.

Ach waren sie für dich und mich
Geteilt leicht zu ertragen;
Du tröstetest im Kummer mich,
Ich weint in deine Klagen
In deine Klagen.

Drum Gottes Segen über dir,
Du, meines Lebens Freude.
Gott schütze dich, erhalt dich mir,
Schütz und erhalt uns beide.
Gott schütze dich, erhalt dich mir,
Schütz und erhalt uns beide.
Erhalt, erhalt uns beide,
Erhalt uns beide.

English translation I love you, as you do me,
In the evening and the morning,
Still was no day when you and I
Did not share our troubles.

Oh, for you and me, they were
Easy to bear, divided
You comforted sorrow in me,
Your laments made me cry,
Your laments.

So God's blessings be upon you,
You, my life, my joy,
May God protect you, you have me,
Speak to and receive us both.
May God protect you, you for me,
Speak to and receive us both.
Receive, receive us both,
Receive us both.
