Translation: I’d not ask a life that’s easy, Gold and pearls so little mean, Rather seek a heart that’s joyful, Heart that’s honest, heart that’s clean.

Heart that’s clean and filled with virtue, Fairer far than lilies white, Only pure hearts praise God truly, Praise him all the day and night.

I seek not life's ease and pleasures, Earthly riches, pearls nor gold; Give to me a heart made happy, Clean and honest to unfold.

A clean heart o'erflow'd with goodness, Fairer than the lily white; A clean heart forever singing, Singing through the day and night.

If I cherish earthly treasures, Swift they flee and all is vain; A clean heart enriched with virtues, Brings to me eternal gain.

Morn and evening my petition, Wings its flight to heaven in song; In the name of my Redeemer, Make my heart clean, pure and strong.
