An Maria
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Dein Aug' ist süß, dein Blick ist hold,
dein Herz so rein wie laut'res Gold,
dein Name klingt so wonniglich,
mit aller Inbrunst lieb' ich dich:
Maria, Maria!

Dein Mund, wie er so lieblich spricht,
wie heilig glänzt dein Angesicht;
dich bet' ich an mit Himmelslust,
ein Lied, nur ein's hat meine Brust:
Maria, Maria!

Sei du mein Engel, sei mir mild,
du mein geliebtes Heil'genbild,
du Fürstin, der ich Treue schwor
und mir zur Herrscherin erkor,
Maria, Maria!
