Sei Mutter der Barmherzigkeit, Sei Königin gegrüßet, Des Lebens Freud' und Süßigkeit, Durch die uns Trost zufließet. Zu dir, o Mutter, rufen wir, Mit Tränen seufzen wir zu dir, O wend' dein [freundlich]1 Angesicht Auf uns vom Himmels Throne. Versag' uns deine Fürbitt' nicht Bei Jesu, deinem Sohne, Nach unserm Tode zeig' uns ihn, Bei ihm sei uns're Mittlerin In aller Trübsal, [in]2 Angst und Not. [O hilf uns in den]3 Leiden, Hilf, tröste uns und bitt' bei Gott, Wenn wir von hinnen scheiden, Erwerb uns Sieg im letzten Streit, O Mutter der Barmherzigkeit!

Salve, mare de misericòrdia, salve, reina del cel, goig i dolçor de la vida, amb els que ens reconfortes. A tu, oh Mare, a tu invoquem, amb llàgrimes sospirem al teu envers, oh, gira el teu rostre amorós vers nosaltres des del tron celestial. No ens deneguis la teva intercessió a favor de Jesús, el teu fill, després de la nostra mort porta’ns a ell, sigues la nostra mitjancera en totes les tribulacions, els temors i la fretura. Oh, ajuda’ns en el sofriment, ajuda’ns i reconforta’ns i prega a Déu quan hàgim de deixar aquest món, atorga’ns la victòria en el darrer combat, oh, mare de misericòrdia.
