Saint Joseph et Marie

Language: French (Français) after the Andalusian

Saint Joseph et Marie vont à travers la Terre Sainte
Pour accomplir l'ordre que César a donné,
Bien qu'avec eux soit le roi du ciel et de la terre,
Ils se prêtent avec joie  à accomplir l'ordre.
Par cela ils nous disent qu'à l'autorité
Les grands et les petits sont soumis.
