You can get the song on iTunes, Amazon Music, and Google Play. I've linked one of the versions we talked most about, sung by Ian Bostridge. Don't know who he is, but, boy, can he sing!
There's a version on YouTube as well for your enjoyment.

Du Bist die Ruh
Du bist die Ruh, You are the calm,
Der Friede mild, The restful peace:
Die Sehnsucht du You are my longing and
Und was sie stillt. what makes it cease.
Der Friede mild, The restful peace:
Die Sehnsucht du You are my longing and
Und was sie stillt. what makes it cease.
Ich weihe dir With passion and pain
Voll Lust und Schmerz To you I give
Zur Wohnung hier My eye and heart
Mein Aug und Herz. Are yours to live.
Voll Lust und Schmerz To you I give
Zur Wohnung hier My eye and heart
Mein Aug und Herz. Are yours to live.
Kehr ein bei mir, Enter here and close
Und schliesse du Quietly behind you
Still hinter dir the gates of your
Die Pforten zu. Gentle embrace.
Und schliesse du Quietly behind you
Still hinter dir the gates of your
Die Pforten zu. Gentle embrace.
Treib andern Schmerz All other grief
Aus dieser Brust! You dispel from my breast:
Voll sei dies Herz My heart swells
Von deiner Lust. With the love of you.
Aus dieser Brust! You dispel from my breast:
Voll sei dies Herz My heart swells
Von deiner Lust. With the love of you.
Dies Augenzelt Your brightness alone
Von deinem Glanz Lights the canopy of my eyes
Allein erhellt, Oh, fill it fully!
0 füll es ganz!
Von deinem Glanz Lights the canopy of my eyes
Allein erhellt, Oh, fill it fully!
0 füll es ganz!
