Vom heiligen Märtyrer Emmerano, Bischoffen zu Regenspurg

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG

Komm Mainz, komm Bayrn, komm Österreich
komm Aquitan, komm ganz Frankreich.
Refrain:
 Ruft alle an St. Emmeran,
 sein Vorbitt uns geleit
 zu der ewigen Seligkeit.

Zu Piktavis, da du geborn,
zum Bischoff erstlich wirst erkorn.

Dein Eifer aber da nicht bleibt,
von dann'gen Regensburg dich treibt.

Bayern dein ander Bistum war,
manch Seel errettst aus Not und G'fahr.

Dein Tod solchs g'nug bezeugen tut,
zahlst fremde Schuld mit deinem Blut.

Der wöll ihm durch sein Mart'r und Pein
all Christenland befohlen sein.

Over de heilige martelaar Emmeraan

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

Kom Mainz,kom Beieren, kom Oostenrijk,
Kom Aquitaine, kom gans Frankrijk!
Refrein:
 Roept allen aan Sint Emmeraan,
 Hij is het die ons leidt
 Naar de eeuwige zaligheid.
 
In Pictavis¹ kwam u op aard,
Men vond u snel een bisdom waard.
 
Uw ijver echter niet aflaat,
Daarom naar Regensburg u gaat.
 
Bei'ren uw ander bisdom werd,
Hebt meen'ge ziel uit nood gered.
 
Uw dood heeft het genoeg onthuld,
Met bloed betaald' u vreemde schuld.
 
Hem wil door marteldood en pijn
Al 't christenland bevolen zijn.
