I think that's exactly what your query does; but it doesn't seem to be what
you really want.

It looks as if your real requirement is

<xsl:if test="strofen/regel/line[contains(lower-case(.), $querylow]">
  <xsl:value-of select="titel"/>
</xsl:if>

(where you can replace lower-case() by your translate call if you are using
XSLT 1.0)
