Nada te turbe

Nada te turbe,
nada te espante,
quien a Dios tiene
nada le falta:
Solo Dios basta.
 
Todo se pasa,
Dios no se muda,
la paciencia
todo lo alcanza.
 
(Todo se pasa
Dios no se muda,
la paciencia
todo lo alcanza.)
 
(Nada te turbe)
Nada te turbe
(Nada te espante)
nada te espante,
(Quien a Dios tiene)
quien a Dios tiene
(Nada le falta)
nada le falta.
(Solo Dios basta)
Dios basta
 
(Nada te turbe)
Nada te turbe
(Nada te espante)
Nada te turbe
(Quien a Dios tiene
Nada le falta)
Nada te turbe
(Solo Dios basta)
Dios basta
 
Nada te turbe
Nada te espante
Solo Dios
Solo Dios basta.

Let nothing disturb you

Let nothing disturb you,
let nothing frighten you,
he who has God
nothing lacks:
God alone suffices.
 
Everything passes,
but God stays,
pacience
reaches it all.

:) Thank you so much Rosa. I love the poetry by the Spanish mystics especially Saint Teresa of Ávila & Saint John of the Cross, but they are difficult to understand, and much more so to translate.

Thank you for your translation
Some suggestions:
Dios no se muda > God doesn't change (refers to the Constancy of God)
nada le falta > lacks nothing
Jesucristo > Jesus Christ (Jesuschrist isn't used in english)
nada te falta > you lack nothing

You are welcome Jamilet. I'm glad you enjoy them.
(If you call Santa Teresa by her name, you should also say "San Juan de la Cruz").

Thank you evfokas for your suggestions. I did this translation with time, and analyzing every line, considering any possibility. "Dios no se muda" was one of them. I know that "God doesn't change" is the main idea but, it so happens that, in Spanish, "mudarse" means to change your residency, to move from one place to another and, since the previous line says "todo se pasa" , I went for "move" to go along with the original. If it sounds better the other way, I'll change it.
"Jesuschrist" was a mistake of mine.
"I may say "you lack nothing". I think I used "lack" somewhere else. In regards to the structure, I don want to lose the style of the original.

Thanks again.
